Tattoo Mag Feature!

Wow! This is my second feature in a tattoo magazine and I am so chuffed! This time there's a really lovely photograph in Tattoo Revolution Magazine of my arm as this month, Mike (Spike at the Art) has an amazing 5 page feature!

This photograph was taken at the Newton Abbot tattoo show. I remember it really well as this was the week I found out I was pregnant, so no bump yet! That day was so tiring and really hard because we hadn't told anyone the news yet and it was hard to contain our excitement.

My Polynesian Tattoo

I'd like to share my polynesian sleeve with you all. It's been finished since November but I've only recently taken pictures of it in its completed state. I had it designed and completed by Mike at Spike at the Art in Plymouth. It took five two hour sittings to complete.
The worst bits were my inner arm, by my armpit and the inside of my elbow. Not necessary the crack of my inner elbow but the sensitive bits above and below it.
It has lots of meaning and it took me a good six months of research to decide on the different elements and their positions.
I have to give pretty much all of the design credit to Mike though, as without him, it would be nothing like it is today.
