I do believe I've said it before, but rib panels are just SO much fun!!!

yes, GREAT fun. Hopefully only a few more sessions.

I went and got my first one on my 18th birthday. Although, it wasn't until I was in my 20's that I started seriously collecting.

getting tattooed by Scotty Munster, and James Kern at Paradise 9/15, and 9/16.

working on my rib panel with Conan Lea 10/18

and hopefully an appointment with Kelly Doty sometime in October as well.

this is one of my favorite backpieces ever.

Usually when I get tattooed it represents my free time or time with the guys. Even at the shop our wives don't really come around except when we have events at the shop. From time to time our wives or their friends want to get tattooed and even then our wives only sometimes show up with them. Our wives like tattoos just not in the same way we do and I think they get that. On the flip side when on vacation I have never heard my wife complain about being dragged to whatever tattoo shop happens to be in that city and sometimes even decides she wants to get tattooed. I don't know if I would feel the same way about tattoos if there wasn't this balance of it being my own thing and something I share.

Sounds like a good balance. My husband is not nearly as into tattoos as I am, but he is far more than the average person! He loves conventions, doesn't mind checking out shops either. It's something I love being able to share with him, because he is my best friend. I love spending time with him. No one else I would rather be around, and luckily he feels the same. :)

My wife has not and I doubt will not be tattooed but we share other passions together and I would never think about being or not being with someone based on tattoos providing they were cool with me getting tattooed

That's good you guys share other interests! My point is, tattoos are

Tattoos are one of my biggest passions, so sharing that with my sinificant other is important! it would be a lot less fun to go to conventions without him, or with him if he was not into it.

I feel like I could not be with someone who was not tattooed. The reason being, I want to be with someone who shares my passion for getting, and being tattooed. I would not know what to do if we didn't share that interest. Luckily my husband loves my tattoos, and is getting more tattooed all the time. He is really starting an amazing collection.

Yeah, we like to call him the fancysaurus rex. It's really surprising how often he is seen around the Internet! I know I love him.

I'm a barista, and I have a sacred coffee bean and portafilter tattooed on me.

This is on me, done by the great Tim Pangburn!

I would say the elbow is was the hardest. I was worried about hte ditch, but it went smoothly both times. Now on to the knee pit, and arm pit. Those I think will be tough.

I'll be getting tattooed by Markus Blanchard and hopefully Getting another piece from Scotty Munster as well.

My husband and I will be there!

Hopefully this works, this is my latest. done in May by Jeff Gogue!

I think the wrap method is good for an experienced tattoo collector. certainly not for the average one.

one of my artists recommended the method to me about 6 years ago and I have been using it since. I have never healed better. I have very sensitive skin in general, so many lotions can cause issue for me while healing. The wrap method allows my body to heal itself without any outside irritants. I love it.

Post up a link to the page when you get a chance, I'd love to see it.

Hi everyone, and thanks!:)

I also forgot to mention 2 artists, Jason Maybruck, and Adrian Dominic!!!:o

Fabulous collection there.

I think your gallery must be missing some pictures . . .

It is! I just had time to upload a few yesterday! I'll upload some more later today!

And thank you!

We did 2 sessions in 2 days on my chestpiece, about 10 hours each day. It really sucked, but was worth it. If traveling I think it an be worthwhile if you know your bodies limits. I know 2 days is good for me. I have been tattooed 3 days at a convention a few times but the third day is always awful.

I think it stands to reason that there is a direct correlation between being light handed and easy healing.

Good point. :)

I am a collector for sure! Can't imagine sticking to just one artist when there are so many talented ones out there!

Some artists who have added to my collection are:

Juan Salgado

Nick Baxter

Gabriel Cece

Jime Litwalk

Scot Winskye

Scotty Munster

Kritel Oreto

Paulo Acuna

Jeff Gogue

Jeremy Miller

Robbie Bauer

Conan Lea

Tim Pangburn

Joe Capobianco

Sean Peters

Michele Wortman

I'm a fat woman covered in tattoos. I think if you want to get tattooed do it. Who cares what other people think anyway? My friend, and tattoo artist Kristel Oreto and I have started a page dedicated to fat women with tattoos. We are just as awesome as any other woman with tattoos.

Not to mention, I think my tattoos make me so much more comfortable with my body. Or at least I feel better about myself. :)

It would not change my artist choice, but certainly one of the lightest hands I have had work on me is Juan Salgado! Also the best healing ever as well.

Hello everyone!

I have been collecting tattoos for about 15 years now, and absolutely LOVE being a tattooed woman! I have collected probably around 200 hours worth of work from many different artists. Love going to conventions, and traveling to get tattooed.

this looks like a great place for like minded people! Can't wait to talk to you all more!
