THIS is my Life?...

My tat is finally getting finished!

Here is my side piece I am slowly getting done. The pics aren't great but I am tired now that my adrenaline rush has gone...if you haven't had your ribs done you can't imagine the pain. The left pic is the front view and the fish is the back. You can see the portion up at the top where some of the purple stencil ink is still there, that is about an hours worth of work left to be done. There is still some other accents and such that aren't there yet but it will all be done soon.

It is full of all sorts of symbolism and has been a pain in the butt to design. I have had a small portion on my hip for a long time and have not been able to finish it due to pregnancy and breastfeeding but finally my body is my own again. Hopefully I'll get the rest done in two weeks, I have to wait a bit until I don't have any gigs for about a week since my top will rub on it.

A little bit of my small tattoo goes up my ribs. And OMG. Yes, it was crazy painful.

heh, I didn't feel brave

The thing that finally worked to distract me was drumming, I put my iPod on and tapped my fingers on the table...bugged the hell out of the tattooist but I didn't feel a thing when I was doing that

I was lucky enough to have two other tattoo artists and their clients to talk to while I was getting mine done. After 4 1/2 hours, I welcomed the company that day! And awesome metal music the entire time. hehe

Artist?
If you don't mind me asking, who did your work? It's beautiful.
