Almost 3 months

Well it's been almost 3 months since I got the tattoo so I though I would post a pic to show everyone how it is doing. It healed really good and the colors look great.

I can't wait for the next one:)

Itchy Itchy Itchy

It's been 4 days since I got my Tattoo and it's driving me nuts! It's so Itchy. It's just starting to scab up and it will for the next 6 days or so. I'll post another picture once it's all said and done.

Me Getting Inked!

Here is a video of myself and the Tattoo Artist Kathy as she works on my Tattoo. Enjoy

The Tattoo is Finished

Well it began at about 10 after 10 this morning. I was pretty nervous up to that point, but once Kathy put the stencil on my arm and she got started on the black outline it just seemed to fly by. When she started I just looked out the window and I saw Jack sitting on the edge of the building outside, swinging his feet and throwing the goats(Telling Dada to Rock On!). The Tattoo took a little over 3 hours. I can't say enough good things about Kathy, she is probably the best Tatto artist I have come accross. I want to say a special Thank You to my beautiful wife for being there with me(Thanks Babe). Here are the pics of the experience(I'll also post a video so you can hear the Tattoo gun)

Less Than 12 hours left

I can't believe it's less than 12 hours until I get my new Tattoo. Here's a before picture of my arm

I've been getting some pictures together of the colors that I want. I'm getting nervous, but it's a good kind of nervous.

Well I guess that's it until tommorow when it's all over.

And I continue.....

The other night when I put the Blog together I was tired and didn't really have any kind of vision for the Blog, but tonight I have it a bit more together. It's not going to be a long Blog, I just wanted somewhere to put my pictures (before and after) of my upcoming Tattoo(Less than 5 Days!!!). This pic is the sketch of my new Tattoo that my Tattoo artist Kathy Body of Life Itself Tattoos .

I originally gave her a picture of another tattoo that was in the same vain of the Tattoo that I was looking to get and the style of font I wanted to use for the lettering. What she came up with was Amazing! It's sketched in Black and White so you can't really get the feel of what the final Tattoo will look like with all of the colors.I'm getting excited and a little scared(But mostly excited)

So the journey begins

I decided just after my son passed away that I was going to get another Tattoo to memorialize him.

I had an idea where I wanted it but I didn't know what I wanted.

The story will continue........
