First: Is my name
Second is a design i fell in love with when i was younger
Third is my granpda. He passed away when i was twevle. The artist i used was great he was able to do that with a blurry picture.

 

[Illini_Girl]

wow those are really pretty!! Did the one on your neck hurt?

 

[Kirara]

Not really. It was a little uncomfortable but doable.

I have a dragonfly on the top of my foot. Don't have any pictures, but it is about 1.5 in long with a dotted heart flying trail.... blues, purples, and a little yellow. Took about 45 minutes to do and it was fun! It tickled! It is because my mom, aunt, and I all went to a Renn. Faire a couple times and each time we got a dragonfly henna tattoo.... They were supposed to get real ones but chickened out.

[Bekks]

On my right arm..eventually it will be a full sleeve of Asian art..like painted scrolls...

On my back, just below my neck...

Right wrist...

 

[Bekks]

Lower back..will eventually be incorporated into a whole back piece...

Sorry for the size of the images...photobucket likes to make you think it makes resizing your images easier...but it's deceptive.

 

[Kirara]

Bekks, your Koi looks beautiful. Are you eventually getting it colored? If so, what colors you gonna do?

 

[Illini_Girl]

WOW everyone has awesome tats!! I LOVE the chinnie ones!! I really want to get a dragon fly too I've been trying to come up with a horse one for my foot cuz i LOVE horses but I have no idea waht to get I want one of my calf too but idk what to put there.

Bekks, your Koi looks beautiful. Are you eventually getting it colored? If so, what colors you gonna do?

Thanks! People ask me that all the time. I think I am going to do a little bit of color, the rest of my sleeve is going to be in the style of Japanese/Chinese art work. So I may do the water green and some of the places where the water would reflect on the koi would also be green.

Something similar to this.

Left wrist:

Right wrist:

I can/t take a picture of my back by myself so I'll have to post that one later.

I got this in July in memory of my Uncle Bill and his gf Laurie...it's backwards because I took the pic in the mirror (because I'm smart like that) but it says R.I.P. on top and their names underneath. I got it on the 3yr anniversary of their deaths and drew it myself:heart3:

I will be getting my side done in a vine of black irish roses with a "tasteful" skull in the center in March for my b-day

I have one tattoo, on my left hip, but as you can see I'm more into piercings :]

 

[kaykay]

I love tattoos and body piercings, it's a self-expression thing to me...and I'm working on 3 additional tat pieces that will hopefully be getting done here in the next couple months. I do currently have my tongue pierced but have had my nose, eyebrow and belly button pierced in the past. Anyhow...what I have now:

A lot of people have already seen this one, it was my first:

This has a double-meaning. It's the Virgo sign and it is also shaped like an 'M' for my last name:

I got this one after some life experiences...just as a daily reminder for me and what I've learned through everything...

Should've wiped off the dirty mirror before taking this picture but this is part of the Tibetan Om Mani Padme Hum (Hung), particularly the Hum (Hung) part which symbolizes the depth of wisdom and unity.

Then lastly I have the breast cancer ribbon with a plumeria flower on the inside of my left ankle. My grandma is a 10 year survivor and in honor of that my mom has a breast cancer, my cousin and I'm the 3rd to get one. All that's left is my aunt and my other female cousin...and I heard my aunt is debating, lol. The plumeria has nothing to do with cancer, I just think it's a gorgeous flower and it actually symbolizes relationship status in the Hawaiian culture.

Nice tats Kay, I love the one on the back of your neck!
