More small bits of my half im working on. So, the skull was honestly a flash, but I enjoy the concept of the unlucky being lucky, and 13 is my lucky number. It was also my 13th tattoo (not a friday the 13th tattoo). I chose the top hat because I try my best to keep it classy, and whats classier than a tophat! The diamond is because I struggle with body issues, but I like to think i'll be a diamond for somebody someday! The Nautie, well I'm in the Navy, and for us it's for an extra 5,000 miles at sea, but after two deployments I think I'm a tad over that now.

But you know what is cool? Grim. Because I've met him a few more times than I wanted. And my family has too. But he hasn't got us yet! The tombstone though, lets face it, theres something appeasing about a 13 dollar tattoo on friday the 13th. Because spiders and skulls are cool right? Not really. I mean they are, but let's face it, I was drunk. Helm with a sinking ship in laid. I had the artist incorporate "rota" on the side because it was done in Rota, Spain. It's a work in progress, which is why it's slightly covering the semi colon, which will be covered completely and moved at a later date. Rose number two! Blue pigment is my favorite, and it went with the theam of my blue swallow so it works. A giant moth on the ribs for my client from a moth flash sheet I completed while I was working in Galicia, North SpainMy lucky number and I got it on Friday the 13th
Call it cliché, but I love roses, I have two, one on each collar. When I was growing up I had a beautiful rose bush in my front yard that grew red and yellow roses. Oh boy, oh boy! The swallow, my second tattoo. As I said, I'm a sailor. Swallows always return home, they're actually my favorite bird, they frequently are seen around the boat traveling with us, and they, like the Nautie, represent 5,000 miles at sea. The O POS. well, I like the font, and my type is O POS, and I'm an old piece of shit! HahaThis is the style I love doing and I enjoy the most. 
Freehand on fingers.
I love it.“I went on a 14 day silent retreat and it was probably the hardest thing I’ve ever done.Towards the end of the two weeks I had what I think I can only describe as an out of body experience during the 4am session. I felt an overwhelming bubble of sadness and guilt literally rise within me but it wasn’t mine I was just experiencing it for someone else, I opened my eyes in floods of soundless tears that also felt not mine.I forgave my mum there and then, and it felt natural that I would stand by her no matter what, no more distancing myself, no more pushing her to get help, I would just be there unconditionally.When I left and came back home my mum told me she had something to tell me. She’d woken up really early in the morning (around 4am) and she said it was then clear what she had to do and why she had to do it.I believe I felt what my mum was feeling. I still don’t know what my mum actually felt that morning but it gave her the power and motivation to change her life.”The cutest face and the sweetest tribute to a friend. I could stare at this one all day and I had the best time tattooing it!
Took the photo at a funny angle so got a bit of a warp on it. WARP SLOTH.All of you dogowners do me a favor and tell them how awesome they are and give them a hug.While doing this tattoo I was reminded of how special the bond can be, and how short their lives are. Make the most out of it. I don't regret any minute I spent with my dog. There wasn't a second that I feel wasted.I even miss the late night walks where it rained and both of us didn't want to got out, but we had to. I miss being laughed at every time I come home. It left an emptiness when he was gone that was hard to fill. So enjoy the time you have together to the fullest. Make the most out of every day, appreciate it.Would love to do more of these small portraits.
