My new tattoo: it’s Mom approved!
I had to laugh at my mom’s comment on a photo I posted on Flickr — “Totally F****** AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!” If my mom likes it that much, it can’t be a bad tattoo, right?
Yes, I got another tattoo. It’s a big ‘un … though it only took about 2.5 hours to complete. It was done by Ahren Bloomquist at Lucky 7 in Libertyville, IL. I am extremely happy and excited about how it turned out.
The tattoo is based on an illustration from Juan Valverde de Amusco’s Anatomia del corpo humano, which in turn is based upon (or stolen from) Andreas Vesalius’ De corporis humani fabrica libri septem.
I totally didn’t realize at first that I used the plagerized illustration. I would have chosen the original image just on principle… except I like Valverde’s version of it more. :::shrugs::: They’re practically identical and besides, they’re over 500 years old so I doubt that it matters.
Today I’m a bit sore. My shirt sleeve is irritating the lower portion a bit (right around the elbow) so it’s red and bleeding a bit in spots. I can’t wait until it’s healed…

Very cool! I can’t wait to add on to my shoulder/arm piece later this spring. It’s very addicting!
