Simplify.

Sometimes, only rare reasons, you should think out of the box and more simple way than usually. I do agree - there is not so many small and fancy tattoos out there but does it matter what other think? In the end should you only think what is your opinion, your desires and just go with a flow. And yes, the most stupid thing someone could ever say to you is "what when you are old". Its like saying Don´t live now, be old and regret life you never lived.

So, I do like to put this small tattoo here. Just to show you that it has not always must be big and colorful. With full of details and beautiful lines with more than ten of different colors making it glow. Sometimes there is more meaning in a small tattoo than it is in full back / sleeve tattoo without any kind of memory or meaning. So if you do have a special moment happened along your life and you would love to tattoo it in your body, you could go like this one ↓ Give it a thought!

 

The place you haven´t thought yet?

I wonder what would be the most painful place to take a tattoo? For me, armpits sounded horrible place to have one. And no, it was not as bad as I thought. But now - it seems to be a bit like fashion (As I have heard) to take one on your knee. Yes, I just think my "painful place to have a tattoo" just leveled up.

 - Actually I have no care of the pain I will suffer. I just want one right now!

Just browsing after the movie.

Oh, sometimes what you have seen, what have u experiencing (experienced) or just what is up in your mind can lead you to browsing some weird stuff. Or something what is not your matter of taste.

As a tattoo lover I always keep my eyes open for new things. New desings and always try to keep my opinions neutral. Of course I can say what I would tattoo to my skin and what not, but when we talk about art and permanent decisions, only what matter is what the taker thinks. Its made to him/ her. What ever you are going to have only what matter is you to love it. 

Biomechanical is something im not sure if love it nor not. Its like wow, but would not suite to me. On the other hand it would be great to have some kind of suspension on my both legs to light my road. Absolutely fabulous idea. But as I wrote, maybe I need to love it before I should even consider to take one of that style. Make your own decision by watchig these two fabulous tattoo.. What do you think?

It is humans best friend.

Not sure if I am talking about the most awesome tatoo artist or even the high quality body art but something about these tattoos moved my insides. Can´t say that I would not think twice before having my dog taken to my sking by this artist and style. But let´s give a break. Sometimes a though my be the reason to have ink on your skin. So maybe we should not concentrate on the quality rather than have a small though about the reason. Make a mans best friend live forever with us.

Honestly, I did not know that it is forbidden to make tattoos in South-Korea. So high fives to him!

Life is all about giving and sharing..

Sometimes it is just to give. To give someone who need it most. And with this thought we humans could do so much more. But lucky us, there will always be people who are still willing to give their share for someone who need it. These might be old news, but I did find it just a few days ago. Actually I think I saw an post in facebook timeline about this, but couldn´t find it anymore. And these few days I kept those thoughts in my mind to live and tell a story. About better life. So, even if tattoo culture seems to has it tabu still, it´s not always just an art form. It might be something totally different to person who has a past with a scary, hard or difficult moment they want to erase. Hide under black, grey or color ink. To know and remember but not to seen anymore. Even if I talk a lot of about the art behind tattoos, its good to remind you about the real life sometimes. All stuff might not be as you see it. It can be much more. So go out and explore. Life is a book and you are in it.

There is no such a thing than a bad tattoo.

Honestly, I´ve have heard too many times "oh shit, it´s so expencive to take" situation while visiting in a tattoo shop. And every time it makes me think seriously. I always compare these situations for buying a car. With a minimum budget you will have one. Yes, it´s a car but I would never drive it. With a decent mount of cash the case is totally different. And you should already know that quality costs. I did have a huge laugh at the Fuck no bad tattoos blog. If you ever - ever think to have a tattoo in a basement, at the friends friend place or even in a mobile tattoo "studio" (never even knew these kind of things exist) have a five minutes and look what this blog can give you. Bitch please, I really hope you decide to spare your coins and have a decent backup cash in your credit card!

And if you still think that it´s a bullshit quality costs make sure you really know what you´re doing. It will last forever!
If you have a bad tattoo and want to share it with us comment below.. (I know, we need a link to it only because comments can´t be include pics, sadly) 

It´s time to take one up!

Mad! It was the first word I had deep in my mind. Just stunned! Sometimes, when you wonder around, you will meet people who are just something you have been looking for. Well, this time, sadly online, I did find something I could not believe to be true. You know, sometimes, some paintings, drawings and tattoos are so realistic you have to take a second look. You just do not believe your foggy eyes. Today this freaky thing happened to me. So I knew I have to bring this guy to you. So, lets have a look (I know this is not a mistake guys!)

Oh, she is the one!

The lady behind of all. Blame on her. The first memories about tattoos and how I did get involved is for sure thanks to her and the tv show Miami Ink and later on LA Ink. The talent I saw behind of these awesome tattoos which one were shown on the tv-show took my eye. I believe it was the biggest push on back to start following culture behind of tattoos. I must say, I have always found art close to me - even if my lack of talent concidering about drawing or.. well lack of talent in any form of art. But as you know, art will not exist if there isnt any viewers. So I believe I´m the one who is keeping art alive. As you might be too. So, it doesn´t mean you couldn´t be part of this only because you do not have talent in that space. 

I know. This is the short writing about how the hell I did fell in love with tattoos. Really short. All my tattoos have a story behind. So, to keep this one just to "let you know" type of post I won´t start to tell. About me much more. About my tattoos. About the story behind of them.  I just wanted to take a word to tell you about this awesome talent you must have heard many times before!

So, if I could ask you - what is your first memory of tattoo (and how did you find them) what would be your answer? Think about it. You can always comment down below and share it!

And in the end I find it suitable to share some places you should go and have a look. Also, I really recommended you to go and "follow" if you feel and can!

Fallen like a hero.

Some crazy masterpiece took my attention.. Such a talent. It´s all I can say. Check out this awesome back piece of wings. There is plenty of wings which can be really adorable. But this sick design made me think about why I do not have wings on my back yet?!

Facial tattoos. Criminal or just lover?

There is time after time you will see conversation about the facial tattoos and what they mean to people outside of your life. Most common argument is, of course, about his/her criminal background. But for me, in this modern world, facial tattoos not always mean a bad story about the past. Actually, some of the facial tattoos I have seen are pretty cool. They are not for everyone. They are not for every work environment (as you know, society has some crazy expectations) But for sure, its for people who just dont give a f*ck! Or just love the art of tattoos. Sometimes it´s just "do what you want". Not thinking about others, think about yourself and your desires. Life is way too sort for thinking about common opinions about something you feel fine. Fine and acceptable. So take a moment and think - what is your own opinion about facial tattoos..
