There really is something quite magical about Traditional Tattoos.


I find them really beautiful, well when theyre done by excellent artists. I love the strong use of colour within them and think that images that feature quite prominently such as the Swallow and the Courageous Boat roaring through the choppy sea are quite simple, although astounding.


Sleeves look really good too,especially if they are full of colour. Not that i am against black and grey as they can look spectacular, although there is something about a bold set of roses or a gypsyesque face filled with beautiful blues and reds that really stands out to me. Its great to here about people's stories of getting tattooed aswell, deep meanings for some, and just for 'funzies' for other people. Although one thing all these people have in common is that their ink is here to stay and long live it!
