i’m a total chicken when it comes to tattoos. i just have this feeling that the design i pick will be the next tramp-stamp or tribal trend of the late 90s. tattoo artist amanda wachob is pushing the boundaries between body art and fine art. her abstract designs resembling brush strokes and paint splatter are amazing; however, it’s her conceptual “bloodline” tattoos that the commitment-phobe like myself can get excited about. using distilled water instead of ink, this lack of pigment creates an impermanent marking that eventually heals with time.

Fascinating and tempting, too.
ReplyDeletevery interesting! i have one tattoo & i love it!
ReplyDeleteHer work is incredible, isn't it. I have four tattoos and I LOVE them all. I think if you get something that is meaningful to you then it won't be wrong.
ReplyDeletean alternative to ink—LOVE this idea. the experimental, perhaps indecisive person's tattoo. you never know when your ideas of what's meaningful or beautiful will turn. these are perfect for changing minds...! lovely.
ReplyDeletewhat great advice! i'm sure i would love whatever i decided to get - it's just a matter of finding the courage to do it. XO
ReplyDeletea tattoo that you don't have to commit to - love it!
