What can I say, I love California. Illustration from 1913 “I Love You California” sheet music. Music by Abraham Frankenstein. Second tattoo from Daniel Bonara at Twelve 28 Tattoo.
This my 3rd tattoo. :)
I got this as a present for my mom for Mother’s Day.
I couldn’t decide what to get my mom for mother’s day so I got a tattoo of her on my right arm. I’ve always loved tattoos and I love the fact that it’s never gonna come off. Just like she’s never gonna stop being my mom.
The tattoo is inspired by the work of Danny Roberts. An incredible illustrator who does really ethereal watercolor portraits. I wanted the tattoo to look like watercolor because I think it’s one of the most beautiful mediums and I love its delicateness and fragility. Exactly the same way as I view my mother.
I decided to have her hair in a bun because I want her face to be the focus and I’ve always thought she was most beautiful when her hair is tied loosely. I added the peach rose at the top because it represents gratitude.
The text on the bottom says “Unconditional love.” I believe that only a mother can truly give absolute love and this statement holds true to what me and my mom has gone through. I’m in love with it so much and the tattoo artist did such an amazing job!Tattoo done by the incomparable Jaime Tud of Wildside Tattoos, Taft Ave. Manila, Philippines.
I got this tattoo because I love film. I always have and I always will. Nothing I love more than movies and television. Eventually I will be adding the Michael J. Fox quote “Pain is temporary, film is forever”.
This was done by Keisha Arbuckle at Arbuckle’s in Espanola, Ontario.
I got this baby more than a year ago for my 19th birthday :)
Done by Sam at Resurrection tattoo in Pasadena, CA
After watching Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho I knew I wanted to study film. This tattoo is my nod to the man who inspired me.
I had this done by Silje of Scapegoat Tattoo in Portland, OR last summer. It’s of a Franz Marc painting, which I thought was appropriate as it combines my love of art with my love of horses and I’d just moved from Oregon to Minnesota for an internship on a horse breeding farm. This is my first tattoo and I definitely plan on returning to Scapegoat for more!
