New Tattoo

If you’re ever in Atlanta, check out West End Tattoo on Abernathy. Trevor (or Chi - is that right, Tash?) did this. He is a true artist. He only works from original pics, but he worked with me to find the best picture. He asked me why I wanted this tattoo, and I guess my answer - that I loved 50’s kitsch and pinup, and that I loved Bettie Page over all the rest - satisfied him, since he agreed to do it. It sounds like such a lame answer now, but it’s true. It turned out better than I imagined, but I didn’t think he would do any shading, which added a lot of time and a lot of hurt. That’s OK, because I absolutely love it! Click on the pic to enlarge (sorry about the glare from the flash.)
