Colin's Left Leg is Traditionally Flash-y
I spotted Colin one afternoon while I was waiting for another tattooed individual to get off of her cell phone.
(Not only have I come up with individual terms for things that are associated with inkblogging, but I follow a code, as well. One of its tenets is to never bother someone talking on a cell phone.)
Colin ambled by and I bounded after him, stopping him and asking about his tattoos.
His left leg is covered with traditional flash, from swallows and bombs, roses, death's head moths,
and a pin-up girl, done in the Sailor Jerry style.
He explained that the sleeved left leg is a result of being "overzealous and excited" about tattoos.
Usually I try to talk about one or two pieces, but because most of his work is just flash, I captured most of his calf.
No fascinating stories to tell, just tattoos.
Thanks to Colin for sharing his ink with us here on Tattoosday!

Tessa's Tattoo Illustrates the Battle of Head Versus Heart
Yesterday, I wrote about two of Lindsay's tattoos. After talking to her, I spoke to her friend Tessa, who had this amazing piece on her left shin:
First, I need to commend Tessa on the quality of this tattoo, which looks crisp and fresh, as if it had just been inked a few weeks ago. She actually had this done in 2005 by Adam Barton at Samuel O'Reilly's Tattoo Parlour in Santa Cruz, California. The quality of the tattoo is judged not just on how well it is done, but how it sustains its vibrancy over time. Tessa won the lottery with this piece.
The theme behind this tattoo is head versus heart. The struggle between logical thinking and emotional feeling are universal, and Tessa acknowleges that this tattoo reminds her of the ongoing battle between the two sides telling her what to do.
Thanks to Tessa for sharing this, one of her nine tattoos, here on Tattoosday!
