my first tattoo - so proud! :D

okay so I spent more than two years thinking about the perfect tattoo - OVERthinking some might say...

 

Anyway, yesterday I went to a tattoo convention and since I was all by myself I approached a girl that I knew from a tattoo forum who is working as a shop manager at a great studio! She told me that one of my favorite artists had a cancellation - I described my idea to her and before I knew it I had an appointment!

 

I'm so glad I did it - everybody was so nice and I appreciated the distraction. I was her last appointment of the day at 6pm and I was a little nervous but time flew by so quickly and the pain wasn't all that bad. In fact, it doesn't really hurt it just stings a little bit. A paper cut on your finger is worse ;)

 

Anyway, thanks so much to Imme Böhme for my first tattoo. I adore her work - She works at THE SINNER AND THE SAINT in Aachen (Aix-la-Chapelle), check out the studio, some great artists there!
