I've changed the look of the blog, and added a community page where you can discuss more about tattoos in the south. I'll be adding more links, and more reviews, over the next couple of weeks... as well as reviewing some books, and hopefully soon, some equipment.
Some other plans in the works include: information about tattoo apprenticeships (how to become a tattoo artist), reviews of studios in Victoria, TX, and more articles about what to consider before, during, and after getting a tattoo.
As always, please feel free to make suggestions in the comments section, and let me know what you'd like to see. The more feedback I get, the more I can make this blog about what YOU want it to be about!!!
Daddy's Li'l Angel
This tattoo was the start of a tradition. Robert is my ex-husband, and Stormi and Tristan's father, and with his (our) oldest, he started the tradition of a tattoo to commemorate the birth of each of his children. I've reviewed Stormi's tattoo in a previous blog post, so I know those of you that follow the blog may recognize the name. The photo was taken summer 2010, the tattoo done by Angel at Dago's in 1991. The artwork was originally drawn by Robert, including the wording surrounding the tattoo, and the tattoo was created to closely match. I recognize his handwriting (rather than hers) on those surrounding words. She did an excellent job of freehanding this tattoo, while retaining the original "flavor" of it. The shading is excellent, and for a 19 year old tattoo, there is little fading. Excellent work by Angel! Dago's is currently located at (713) 692-7404 · 5131 North Fwy, Houston, TX 77022, or on the web.
