Here's one tat. I don't have a clear pic of the other one, which is older. This one is of my quote from the book, "Slaughterhouse Five" by Vonnegut. I'm a bit of a literary nerd.

Wow! Love all the wonderful tats I took these pics today:

My 1st tattoo of a Peace Dove 1987 and 2nd tattoo Bat with Moon 1993, both touched up 2010


My Owl, left thigh 1993 (this one covers up my old vaccine scar from childhood)


My Phoenix, right thigh 2007

I have quite a few, but not many good photos of them!

Bad Religion "Against the Grain" album cover on my shin


My half-sleeve, a day of the dead theme. There is a sugar skull on the inside half of my arm.


I have a lip tattoo which is almost gone now. It pretty much just says "B.E..."


I had these cherries on my calves re-done about year ago. Now they are much more brightly coloured and have pink pink bows on the top.


This ankle tattoo was inked by a friend after I had a really bad week and just spontaneously jumped on a plane and flew to another city. Its an anchor to remind me to stay grounded and deal with my problems.


My chest, many years ago when they were brand new. They have suffered the worst of all my tattoos with my weight gain. They are little fat girls now too hahaha.


I also have a little blue diamond behind my ear, and a half-backpiece of two swallows flying in around a sacred heart.
Eventually I will get a babushka doll on the inside of my other arm, and I'm considering my weight-loss reward being extending my haklf-sleeve into a full sleeve with a big portrait of the Virgin of Guadalupe.

My first tat in memory of my mom who was a music major and taught me that life is music. I regret letting a friend do it though because it came out crappy and the ink bled so when there's money I'm going to have it gone over and add some music to it


The second is my own design and has a lot of meaning to me, its on my upper back. It was drawn while my mom and I celebrated her bday and the chinese character is part of my actual chinese name. It's also another one done by my friends during a difficult time in my life. It's filled in now but needs gone over professionally


Sorry the images are so big

I luuurrvvee tattoos. When I can post images I will get mine up here!

Here's my tattoo! I spent a year designing it, it went through many make overs but I'm happy with how it turned out! It's on my lower back and I know the picture doesn't convey scale very well but it's a decent size. About 7 inches across I'd say!

Riestrella Wow! That's beautiful! You did amazing designing that. I'm totally in awe

ilidawn - Thank you so much! That means a lot =). Holds such sentimental value so it's always nice when people like it as well as me!!

@ LaurenBelle, that day of the dead tat is simply wonderful.

My first tat, got it a few months ago.....



It says 'Just A Dream' in Greek.

I'm itching for more, already got several others planned in my head. One is the Cherokee seven point star:

This is the hawk I have tattooed on my ribcage. I also have full back wings, a tramp stamp I got when I turned 18 (ugh) and the libra symbol on my hip. Oh, and the roman numeral 5 (V) on the back of my neck. (sorry about being in my bra, lol)

Dorian5 - That is so awesome!! I love it!

These pics were taken 3 years ago...when I was 126lbs I miss that tiny lil butt!

Thank you much. I will never, ever get my ribs tattooed again! lol

I love all of your tattoos!

I have a tramp stamp, that started like 2 inches, now it is freaking HUGE, not from weight gain, but from 3 different attempts to make it look straight lol Now it is a butterfly over some vine stuff. I am ok with it. I also have a 3 leaf clover on my hip. I will post pictures tomorrow, after I go home and take them. I am upset about the 3 leaf clover. I got it at 21 because I am Irish and my bday is St Patties day, oh and I am a red head. I got 3 leaf to be different. Well, now I work in a prison and found out that 3 leaf is a gang sign lol I am a member of the AB and didn't even know it....
