It was my most painful one but it's pretty big, and has about 6 or 7 colors. I did it at one time and it took 4hours. I had it done on my lower back and was a little thin and I had this "dip" by my spine and he had a heard time getting into that spot and was just going over that spot pretty hard, but other then that it wasn't tooo bad. im not sure if I would do it again, but I love it so it was worth it, I think

I may have posted on one of these piercing threads before but I forget so I wil post again hehe.

I have my septum pierced, gauged to 10 (feels really good)
my left ear gauged to 2 and right ear gauged to 6
I have a 2 more piercings in my left ear that I did myself
I HAD my nipples pierced just recently but had to take them out...
I am planning to still pierce my tongue, and a surface piercing on the back of my neck. AND I am planning to get more ear piercings, like my tragus again and the top of my ear i want pierced multiple times with spikes. Workin on all that. It is not cheap hehe and I cna only do so much myself.

As for tattos, none yet, but I want a cat paw print somewhere and I want a huge peacock feather design on my side when I lose a little weight to where I can show it off

I have many tattoos. My left arm is sleeved, my right arm is the start of a sleeve. My back, neck, legs, finger and lip are tattooed as well. It is a serious hobby for me, or is it a collection??lol Not sure, but they mean a great deal to me. Its a picture book painted on me of my life. I get all of my tattoos done by professional artists and as of late I've had much of my newer work done by an award winning artist...Jamie Izumi. I donot worry about what they will look like in 20-30 years. I don't expect my skin will be tight and beautiful (by our worlds standards that is) at that point in my life and I don't think I will be worried about my tattoos looking old either. Getting them done is a very spiritual thing for me. When I look at them, the ones I can actually see with my own eyes, it takes me back to that time in my life and the meaning of the tattoo. Its almost meditative, and keeps me in touch with who I am and where I've been. I guess as long as there are pages added to my life story so will the ink flow

I would love to see pictures of them if you do not mind. It is OK to say no some people keep them private.

Cool I love tattoos, I got the first one with hubby 3 weeks before he was killed at the ink slingers ball and have been addicted ever since. I just wish he was here to see mine. He had a body of art I was always so scared to. I am glad he was there for my first tattoo and the next was for his memory and the 3rd was for my kids. All have something behind them.

Wow, blueeyes, Jamie izumi, I am impressed! I do not know him personally, only by reputation. He does beautiful work. I am still trying to get my artist to post some pics fro me. It's only been about 3 years that I have been trying.

momof3rugratz, I'm sorry for your loss. It is very awesome that you have a tattoo in his memory and one for your children as well.

krazy kat2, Jamie is an awesome guy and I feel really fortunate to live merely 30mins from his shop
He has clients flying up from the states on weekends to get work done by him.

ok here are some pics. The snake arm is Jamie's design and it is still in the works. there are a few old tattoos that he worked around in there. The scales on my wrist are his doing as well, that arm is going to be a freak show/performing artists arm. The Haida bat on my neck was done in Toronto by another artist who drew that tattoo freehand onto my neck/back. The ones on my calves are also Jamie's work and are also still in the works. The black gargoyle is the only unprof. job I recieved when I was 17 by an friend that was learning. He now owns a shop in Toronto and his work has improved...still I like it, it was a real brute to get done...yowzers!!
here goes....

thanks a bunch
I think what I like most is telling people about them. I can see myself as an old lady sitting around with a bunch of kids telling them stories attached to each one

Ya when I moved to UTAH I got a lot of looks because of my arm with the hearts, but then today I walked in to wal mart and they saw my chest and man the looks. Me and the auto lady where talking and I explained them all and she was super nice. I have my husbands right on my heart and it is the size of my hand so it is hard to cover up and it is a skull. If you scroll up you will see it and the lady though I worship the devil. oooooooooo people are so judgmental at times.

Thank you The skull and heart was done by my husbands tattoo friends that did his. The skull on my chest is what I had made because the urns his work made each one of my kids looked like it. We took the design and tweaked it. The skull with a bow is what hubby got me because he said I was his girl.

thanks IloveSiamese, the tat on my neck was inspired by my dearest friend who is Aboriginal. She as well, got a Haida tattoo in the same spot that I bought for her birthday. Watch out for that area, when it crosses the side of your neck it tickles like crazy!!! My artist had to keep telling me to sit still!
