The Greatest Compliment
The Greatest Compliment
| Posted at 09:51 PM on August 09, 2009 |
The greatest compliment an artist can ever recieve, in my opinion, is having one of his images permanently engraved into anothers flesh in the form of a tattoo.
This being said, I must thank a friend that I met online, PickaBooka, whose husband had my armband design tattoed recently. Here's the image and the tattoo:
I thank PickaBooka and her husband for their patronage, and thank you also to the tatoo artist who did such an amazing job.

UPDATE:After posting this entry, I recieved the following message from Pickabooka, and I thought I would share it with my fellow humans. Here it is:
Love that you posted it to your Blog, keep it there for sure. You definitely should be proud of yourself for coming up with such a totally unique design and an art piece incredible enough for someone to have permanently tattooed onto their arm.
My husband knew he wanted an armband but was very hesitant about getting one. (It's his first and probably only tattoo.) He was being very picky about the design, (rightfully so) ...never finding anything he liked enough or that was unique enough... whether on the internet or on tattoo shop walls.
I was lucky to come across your design while searching for ideas for him. I had an idea it would be "the one". I printed it out and showed it to him. When he didn't say anything right away I knew he liked it. The rest is history.
Thank you for allowing us to use your awesome design and keep up the good work.

Once again, I thank Pickabooka for her support.
