Remember this delightful couple? Well Sindy‘s BMEzine logo tattoo is by Stan of Way Cool Oakville, Ontario and she thought it would be fitting as her husband is a medical student..

Just use Smarties!
Yeah, I’m confused too.
This multi-portrait family tree tattoo comes from Malaysia, I especially like the mythological characters (which I’m sure I don’t need to explain) that were added at a later date..

Ever since I was little I joked about getting my birthmarks numbered–that I was one big connect-the-dots tattoo that made a “me”.
This tattoo is part of “The Stalking and Murdering of a Childhood Giraffe Project” (full explanation of the art project is HERE.) It’s an extremely visible invisible tattoo and Dave C. Wallin (Tattoo Culture, Williamsburg, NY – more) did an AMAZING job considering how small the numbers had to be. Pretty sure I’m not the first person in the universe to come up with this idea (ROO: Nope, you may have been the first though!), but I’ve yet to see another connect-the-dots tattoo.
The design was based on a really geometric giraffe drawing I once saw (if anyone can find the name of the original artist I would be super appreciative!), but I modified it to have spots and be even more box-like. I love this tattoo so much.. which makes it hard to walk down the street without staring at my own calf.
