      I often wish I had waited and not been so heavily into being tattooed at such a young age. I've been worked on by a lot of great artists but to see just how much the boundaries are being pushed now is amazing to me… I've been around it for the last. 20 years and it's flourishing do much as an art form and what is possible. Really great stuff MP

        Thank you, means a lot to me. I know exactly what you mean - I feel like everyday I discover another great artist, with probably a totally different style that wouldnt match mine and thus is not for me.  On the other hand, after trying it out on my first tattoo, I'm now glad to have two really good friends and artists that I feel connected to as a person, so it makes it easy to go on. Even if I discover something else that I like, I won't regret the ones I got.

            You bet. In fact the arm was pretty gnarly after 5 hours. And I thought that would be the easiest spot. But I also feel like the pain you notice depends on your daily form. but on the belly and ribs we will hopefulyy just do outlines and shades in one session.

                      5 hours is a long time no matter where you are getting tattooed. Bob Tyrrell tattooed me for 9 hours straight when doing my miles portrait and to this day I still feel that after 3-4 hours it becomes hard to meditate yourself through the pain… it becomes more of a test of perseverance

                                Interesting, and a lot of what they're saying is true. I still only have one tattoo but I would definitely want more at some stage, just seem to always find other things to spend my money on…..I think it's called parenthood  😠
