I started feeling badly that I didn't have any representation for my dogs and cats on my body, given that they are a much more crucial part of my life than, say, spiders. Turtles. Geometric shapes.
So I scheduled an appointment, discussed my ideas with my artist, and tackled all the kids individually with a stamp pad. I only got scratched once.
Crazy pink and purple for my battshit crazy Scarlette. Brown and orange for my tortie, Lili Leau. |
In the center of my elbow, blue for Savannah. Also filler and some more on the skull. |
Archie, which I don't think I've share. And "Tu me manques", as a tribute to my baby. |
Hidden cream and sky blue paw for Little Shit, my husband's Siamese. |
Close up of Savannah's. |
Birgette's paw in gray and yellow (once the blood clears), right below the rose. Also, the remaining blank canvas before my sleeve is 100% finished. |
More skull and the geometric pattern, which everyone tells me looks like Q-bert's (?) world. Once his world was explained, I felt very sad for a fictional character. |
Finally, Lizzie's paw above the outside of my wrist, in pink and green for her little tongue and green eyes. |
