spiral tattoo sleeve

My arm in bloom :-)
OK...so now I know how hard it is to take a photo of my own arm, LOL. I thought I'd give you a close-up of my ongoing full sleeve, it's been completely outlined but the 'colouring in' is only halfway...quite a few sessions to go already! Tattoo artist: Ken Patten of The Tattoo Station , Newcastle-upon-Tyne, England.

55 - Wrapped in clingfilm?!
24th February 2007 Sorry if the title scared you...me in clingfilm (ceramwrap) is not a thought to be subjected to over breakfast, haha. This however, is my arm in Bepanthen nappy cream and clingfilm - the best way to keep a new tattoo clean and treated. As you can see my elbow is now hugely swollen and quite bruised (the inner/outer elbow in the slightly brighter blue is where the work has been done), and is very, very painful - more so than having the actual tattoo done. It's all worth it in the long term...honest!!.
