Wedding Party


I went to my cousin Jason's wedding and there was this beautiful young lady with a tattoo on her shoulder. I asked her about it; however, there was no great story. It was a cover-up tattoo. She didn't like the original, so she a new tattoo applied over it.

Dallas and His Tattoos




Dallas from Louisville, KY sent in some pics of his tattoos.


"The ones in the pic with the dog, the top one is my sign...it says scorpio, the one below it is a sun with my son's name in it "Brandon". It's in memory of him.


The one on my forearm, Dallas, is not only my name it was my grandfathers name. It also is in memory of him.


The tribal is a cover-up tat. I wanted a tribal, and I had a tat that I wanted covered, not because it was a bad one, but I just didnt like it. So, a guy that I was working with at the time was just getting into doing tats, and he designed this one for me. I still need to have some more ink added but just havent done it yet.

Hopefully, I can get better pics of them for you, and I'm going to Florida for vacation and plan on trying to get a new tat down there."

Lotus

Brittney from Chicago sent in this Lotus Flower.

She said, " This symblolizes me rising from a bad beginning to success and happiness. I've got this tattoo my freshman year a college to remind me of how far I've come!"

Lotus, Butterfly, and Symbols

Mandi from Baltimore submitted these tattoos.

Unfortunately, she didn't include a story. I e-mailed her back and hopefully, I'll get the story to go with the tats!

Pegasus and Other Tattoos

This tattoo was submitted by Sylvia in Dayton, OH.

Unfortunately, she did not include a story.

Please, always include the story behind the tattoo!!

Mardi Gras - Scorpio and Lotus

Late posting of a Mardi Gras photo. This is Stephanie from Atlanta.

The Scorpio is her sign.

The Lotus Blossom; "I have my Lotus flower, because it actually represents my life. The beginning of the life of the Lotus flower is down deep in the MUCK and the MUD of water and it actually grows up and OUT of the muck, mud and water and becomes a BEAUTIFUL creation of life. That's why I have mine, life for me did not start out so great but I fought my way through the crap of it all and succeeded."

Butterfly

This one was submitted By Betty who lives in in Pompano Beach, FL.

She said she got this butterfly 2 years ago. The butterfly reminds her that beauty can come from ugly things (caterpillars).
