Carving someone’s name into a tree is one thing. Carving someone’s name, and the tree, in flesh is another thing altogether.
This particular carving was done by Richard ‘Effin’ Ivey.

Wow, that’s an amazing idea. I hope it heals well.
Richard Effin Ivey is an artistic genius, if you ever get to Raleigh NC make damn sure to go have him do some work for you. I have seen dozens of the Scarifications that he has done and I am always amazed at the detail.

That’s a really cool concept! Curious on how this looks healed – hopefully there’ll be a follow-up!
Glad Richard and I were able to dazzle and excite, and yes, further down the line, I can at least follow up with pics. Right now, the scar is in the “pain of healing” stage, which includes some itching, and plenty of opportunity for a little healthy scratching to keep things rough. I have been very pleased with this piece so far, and every day is filled with new sensations on my left side. Richard did an amazing job, and I am proud to wear his art.
-The guy in the picture with the cuts. :p
P.S. Yoga, pull-ups, crunches, and all manner of cardio activities are especially exciting!
