girls with tattoos

Lightning bolt, ankle. Too much gin results in bad home tattoos. I also have a name on my butt.

Bump.. To read later :P

Eeyore on left ankle, Angel (that matches my sis & mom's) on right ankle, Godsmack inspired sun on upper middle back & my best buddy's paw print on the top of my right foot. Nautical star (to match sis & dad's) & line of starfish on my arm to come, (to represent my role in dog rescue)

Right Arm

Unfinished back piece, good versus evil kinda thing.



Sorry so big

YAY! I like showing my tattoos

My first tattoo: A sketch by Tara McPherson and it symbolizes mother nature (and my entire thoughts on existance) to me. Obviously on my left side from ribs to hip. It's meant to be just an outline.


My Second tattoo: It's a symbol for St. Michael the arch angel to symbolize good versus evil. Right under wrist.


My Third Tattoo: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!! Again, a huge philosophy of mine. And also kind of a play since I kinda believe in the whole circle of life kind of thing.


My Four Tattoo: Song Lyrics. They're by Kimya Dawson and are pro-peace/anti-war. Love their meaning, Love her, and randomly ran into her while on a backpacking trip in the UK. It's my right forearm.


My Fifth Tattoo: My Memorial Pocket Watch. I had a series of deaths (five) that were sudden and unexpected within five weeks of eachother. This is to remember that time is fleeting (there's a bird at the end of the chain), to remember my loved ones and is set to 11 11 which is the wishing hour. Right Foot and ankle.


LAST and Sixth tattoo: A Wocket in My Pocket. It needs to be coloured in at some point. It's a Dr. Sues book and character and it's for my grandfather. He raised me along with my gram on behalf of my parents and it was a great memory of that time. Left Thigh.



Sorry - so long!! Im waiting on one more tattoo then I'm done. It's a Welsh love spoon going to go on my right hip. I'll get it when I get married as a token of that huge moment in my life and to commemorate my grandmother as well.

Thanks I had to move albums. Not sure why that one wasn't working. Even when taking it out of upper case.

sorry if this doesn't work/pic is too big, first time uploading pics.
I've got 5 but my fav is the one one my thigh (grabbed this pic from my tattoo artists facebook page) I don't have any on this computer



and my first ones (tiny little ones) haha




I also have one on my back shoulder blade of a star with the pieces chipped and falling off of it, and Tim Burton's "voodoo girl" heart on my bicep.

Caution! Big photos!








The first few are of my right arm sleeve that is in progress.
One is of the lotus in my arm pit....Yes, it hurt like hell!
Next is my dragonfly wings
The last is on my right calf. I am a cake artist by trade and an Eddie Izzard fan by the grace of God :laugh:

I have several more tattoos not shown here. But I dont have pictures of them yet.

outside left ankle, I have a celtic triquetra:



with small leaves attached. It symbolizes the connection between the mind, body, and spirit, and helps me remember that true health stems from balance between all three aspects.

edited: to add picture

I have the University of Cincinnati's "C" paw on my left big toe.
I will soon have written out in white ink on my right wrist "thirteen point one" for completing my first half marathon last month.

"breathe" on my wrist and 2 Luke Chueh bears on my lower back...just so far :P

now lets see if I did this right lol

1. Left wrist: 'Non timebo mala quoniam tu mecum es" - latin for "I will fear no evil for thou art with me" - favorite scripture! Also has a cross just below it.

2. Right wrist: 2 Ancient hawaiian petroglyphs morphed into one (my own design) - first meaning "protector", second meaning "wisdom".

3. Over my heart: My sons name with angel wings.

4. My inner right ankle: Three stars, one green, one red, one yellow (rasta!) - This one I actually did myself when I was getting into tattooing. Was my first one ever and pretty proud of it.

5. Right calf: Spider web w/ spider, in the middle of the web it says "Fearless" in japanese.

6. Inner left ankle: Two hibiscus flowers with a honu (turtle), and a butterfly (which I tattooed myself) - on the bottom it says "Onipa'a" which is the motto of our ancient hawaiian queen meaning "Steadfast".

7. Nape of my neck: Hawaiian islands and "808" tattooed below it.

9. Upper back: My name "Ihilani", freestyled by my first tattoo artist.

10. Left and write shoulder blade area: Two mirrored hawaiian flags.

11. "Kanakafied" in old english going down my spine, and two bamboo stems/leaves on both sides of it

12. On my back as well: 4 different flowers, each about 5 square inches in size: One is a puakenikeni, my moms favorite. One is a purple rose, my sisters favorite. One is a red carnation, my grandmas favorite. And one is of a dandelion (the yellow weed and the one you like to blow in the wind as a child lol) for my son - he loves those damn things lol

Also, my two favorites:

13. In dedication to my attitude and overall thought of people: I have "Aloha *****eees!!" tattoed on my *kitten* cheeks. "Aloha" on one and "*****eees!!" on the other. With that exact spelling. And no... this will never be the one I regret, because it's totally me.

14. A skin removal scarification on my left calf of two hibiscus flowers. Took a couple weeks to heal, and still didn't produce the hypertrophic scar I intended, despite the countless hydrogen peroxide and lemon juice baths, but it's still a reminder that I can do and endure anything that I set my mind to.

Once I lose all my weight, I plan on getting my entire back done in a mural-like style. So excited.
