hey all.
Have done my second tattoo! Oh yes, I am hurtling through now.....(err, not.)
My lovely friend Matt was my second willing victim. He chose a little fish, drawn by his son. I kept asking him for it, so I could check it out, but he couldn't find it!
So, my second tattoo was done as a walk-in, with no heads up...
It was great. Went through the whole thing from chatting it through, tracing it up and getting on with it.
I wasn't nervous this time..i had a few minutes to get my stuff together, I did some pigskins in the daytime, it was on a hulking great man, not my tiny little sister, my machine worked..it was great!
It came out really cute..I don't have a pic though. Matt changed his mind about the position, so the background was all covered in carbon. As soon as he sends me a photo with it all nice and clean, I will post it.
Felt brilliant while I was doing it. I completely forgot it was a friend's leg and it just became a drawing I was working on. Had to make a few additions along the way, filled in a few bits, added a few bubbles......afterwards I just wanted to get on and do another one!
Have a few more friends booked in for more in the next few weeks - have two little projects to work on.
My beautiful mate Phoebe wants an Art Deco rose (can't say where) and Ben has got a spare bit of skin "between my flaming skull and my spider web" and is happy for me to design something....brilliant!!
So, two down, thousands to go.
Found this guy today - BROM. Graphic artist, his work has been tattooed many times, twisted little fucker. Check him out. Click on his pic. Going now, got loads of drawing to do.
