    I have my right forearm (inner) done, It's a persian styled female angel. It was done by Amanda Ruby in the UK who just won artist of the year over here. The story is, everyone has a good and bad side.. I intend to get my left inner forearm done, by a different artist. I;ll be getting a demon, there. Both are/will be black and grey pieces.

    Foot- a butterfly I got for my sisters 18th birthday

    Right shoulder- Chinese symbol for passion that my closest cousin and I both have.

    Left shoulder- Cherries with a bite taken out of one of the cherries

    Back of neck- Star my first tattoo and I was really into stars at the time

    Right calf- moon and stars because I am a creature of the night

    Back- A vine of roses that starts at my lower back and goes up my spine this represents my family. My sister and mother both have a vine of roses on their back but they are all different. Mine is the largest.
  • A roaring lion with violets in its mane, in memory of my son's father. Hoping to get one in my son's memory soon (an amalgam of characters from the first and last books I read to him, and his hand print).

    ^ Lol, agreed! I have 9 that all have meaning and I love them all. ESPECIALLY my 2 knuckle tats which literally everyone told me I'd regret getting when I get older. Because when I'm old and decrepit and have memory loss and incontinence, my main concern will obviously be how I wish I never would have gotten my knuckles tattooed.

    I have two small butterflies near my hip - first tattoo so wanted something small incase it hurt too much...lol.. second tattoo was my tramp stamp (lovely name they give it hey!) across my lower back - hurt like a b*tch but didn't punch the woman doing it - only just! And my last one was a blooming flower on the back of my neck with my hubbys name in it. I want to get the kids names somewhere too but not sure what to get yet :-)

    Shamrock and the Polish Falcon- they are my nationalities
    Moon and stars- my mom and I went to get matching tattoos and whats we picked together
    Sunflower- represents happiness to me
    Haley Lizzy- the name I call my first niece
    ring of doves- special meaning between my mom and I
    Jolley Rodger flag over a ocean wave- Pirates are my favorite team and I also wanted to be a "goonie"
    Buddha- I love the philosphy of the religion
    Egyptian eye- I love ancient Egypt
    A heart with a rainbow inside it, a vine of flowers, a momarch butterfly over an Iris- these three represented beauty to me
    A ring a black leaves- it was the easiest way to cover up a tattoo done wrong.

    I have 4- Celtic circle, tribal- thing, thing on my back and 'sun' on the top of my foot- all pretty large tats.

    No story- I was young, at uni, a Goth, had more money than sense and thought they'd be 'cool'- plus I fancied the tatooist.

    Gonna cost me tonnes of cash to get them removed. Luckily I could take the 27 peircings i had out (18 were in my ears by the way)

    I have 5, some of which are shown on my profile pics. They all mean something to me but nothing really deep. I love my two Snoopy tattoos cus Im absolutely mad about that lovely intelligent dog. Have a nice day everyone.
  • i have a tattoo of skin on my skin

    WIN
  • I have a small lady bug the size of a dime on my left shoulder and a small colorful fish on top of my left foot and it hurt like hell because the skin is thin there. It looks super cute with flip flops and sandals on though...I like small cute ones for myself. I love it when a man has their last name tattooed across their back and shoulders at the top. :love:
  • The name of my 3 1/2 month old daughter that passed away in cursive with two red hearts on either side on my right wrist on the inside.

    I have a tat of a cowboy kneeling before the cross (his horse is trailign behind him) with my kids names above it. Also the name of my wife who passed away. I got it a few months ago, but she passed 3 years ago.

    Cross on left calf ~ Obvious meaning

    Sad Moon on right shoulder. ~ Was in a very very bad car accident 12 years ago when was hit head on by drunk driver. Was in hospital for over 3 months and developed insomnia as whenever I would sleep I would have nightmares of the wreck

    Dragon on a Mountain on left shoulder ~ No meaning, just like dragons because I'm a dork like that.

    Statue of an Angel in a Lightening Storm on Entire back. (In process, 4th session on Sat and probably 5 or 6 to go after that) ~ My sister designed the tattoo. As my "guardian angel" is always weathering my storms and seeing me thru all the messes I have gotten myself into.
  • pink cherry blossoms with branch from my shoulder blade up to the base of my neck. Very beautiful and soft
  • I got a scene from the exorcist on my shoulder blade to represent me beating some of my 'inner demons' aha

    You can see a couple in my profile pics: I designed my own so that I can't ever say I don't like them as they are my art work & my body is my canvas. They were all times in my life - each one symbolizing it's own era. The first one was one I somewhat designed when I was around 11 or 12 & painted it on my ankle & said if I still like this when I'm 18, I'm going to get it. Well, I was 19, found a slightly more mature version & got it.

    I'm very upset I haven't had a new one in over a decade :frown: But, I'm working on my back right now & as soon as I'm fully satisfied, I've got a tribal I'm working on that will go shoulder to shoulder & come down on either bicep to "wrap" around the existing bicep tatts - just need to work on the design in my limited free time!

    Topless brunette on my right shoulder, it was my first, I just picked it off the wall, lol
    My second is another pin up, a blonde undressing on my left calf. I flex the calf and she does a nice hip thrust.
    My third is a larger pc on my right calf of 2 wild looking mermaids, kinda Pisces-ish. My best work.
    My center back has a swirling phoenix, needs a bit more work, some smoke or something.
    My next pc will probably be some kind of tree with a treehouse in it, on the left shoulder/chest/arm.

    I love tattoos, but I have a real hard time finding quality artists. I hate living out in the bush at times.
  • The name 'Aubrey' on my left wrist. It's a remembrance of my first daughter who had Hypoplastic Left heart Syndrome and passed away when she was 2 months and 5 days old, once I get down to the weight I want to be my treat is going to be a tattoo on my right inner forearm of a 3 leaf clover (I'm half Irish) with my kid's names in the peddles, Aubrey, Delilah and Jasper.
