I wish I could say it’s been a hot minute since I last posted, but let’s be honest, a large portion of the country is in the grips of this polar vortex thing and it’s been damn cold out. I’m permanently cold, but when I tattoo I tend to overheat. Luckily, it’s been pretty busy at the studio the last couple weeks so I’ve stayed toasty and warm. Here are the highlights:
Super proud of this one. This was the winner of a holiday giveaway I did.
A little in love with this one, too. It’s something I could even envision on myself.
This one has sad story behind it. The customer got it because her son was shot and killed recently. After getting approval from the health department, we added some of his ashes to the ink so she’ll always have him with her.
A very cheerful cover-up.
It’s a symbol of inspiration for a woman on her 70th birthday.
How cute is this? The customer designed it herself.
Cute friendship tattoos.
No story here, it’s just cute.
Same customer as the one above.
A couple came in and wanted different versions of a willow tree with their kids names/initials.
This is the other version of the willow.
The customer wanted her parents’ birth flowers for this pretty tattoo.
The friendship tattoos!! 😍😍

These are all wonderful! Thank you for sharing the stories when you’re able to. I had no idea that ashes could be used in a tattoo; that’s such a beautiful way to carry your loved one with you.

Thank you! I’ve definitely taken a step back from my blog, but I do need to pop in every once in awhile to post some of my favorites.
