"I think of God and Death and Triangles..."*






Stencil is on and ready to go. Left ankle, crossing my leg up to the table from the chair. Yes, it's a blurry picture.









This is 1/3 of the way through the outline. I freely admit I didn't do as well as I may have if it wasn't on myself. There's a pain that you have to work through and ignore to get it done and get it in.







And the outline is finished.











Celtic Triangle - Ankle 5/2/2008

And the the fill-in for the bare spaces. My knotty triangle.
3rd tattoo completed, 2nd tattoo done in 1 sitting, 2nd personal tattoo. Canvas is canvas and nothing behaves like real skin.

*A reporter once asked Dylan Thomas what he thought about. "I think of God and death and triangles," the Welshman replied. It was the title of my term paper in the 12th grade, 1988, for Mrs. Johnson's World Literature class.

My order came in today from Superior Tattoo. 3 springs, 2 armature bars, 5 #15 mags, 5 #13 mags, 5#14 rounds. The machine hums again. Triangle for me, cross for Sic_un. Pictures when I find batteries for the camera.
