  1. Let me say it is an honor to be the first post in this thread! I can only imagine some of the ownderful stories to come!!! First tattoo was a pachuco cross on my left index finger! Was done by needle and thread with india ink by a boy whose name i can't even remember! It has lasted 28 years and believe it or not cost me a promotion to a management position 17 years ago....back when tattoos were not as ""hip" or "fashionable" Would I do it again??? Yes....most definitely....although knowing what i know now.....it would have been professionally done! I got my first Professional tattoo 26 years ago by the lovely Juli Moon while she was still at Dragon Moon Tattoo in Baltimore, Maryland! It is a butterfly on my left breast which has since been incorporated into my chest piece! I am fortunate to have started being tattooed by such a wonderful tattooist right out of the gate and i know that now! I have made several mistakes over the years by being tattooed by people in the craft who were friends but less than accomplished tattooists but fortunately nothing that is horrible or couldn't be fixed! Why did I get tattooed? I grew up in an area where people had tattoos....not necessarily I guess the best area, and I fell in love with the art at a very early age! I am the only one of the three girls that walked to the door of Dragon Moon Tattoo that went inside that evening! It was more of a street shop then than a "studio" and I have to admit I was scared to death! But I did it and have lived with the outcome of my decision for 26 years now! What a wonderful decision it was too! I have some of the best friends and have met some of the nicest people! That decision 26 years ago has led me to have a wonderful collection of art on my body done by 49 artists to date! I want to have the best work I can have....by the best artists I can get to tattoo me! I am a collector of fine art now and my skin is the canvas!!!
