          The symbol in the middle is the Celtic symbol for the 'Rowan' tree, The Tree of Life, my son's name (as you know)
          The outer ring is an 'Oroborous', a serpent eating it's own tail symbolising eternity.
          My son was also born in the Chinese year of the Snake, hence the serpent (tenuous I know)

                      Rachel at Immaculate Tattoo, she's done the majority of my work and she's about 3 blocks from my house.
                      DS knows someone in Little Tokyo too but you may need an appointment with him.

                                            Bumping an old thread with some new work.  Best pic I can get for now.  Modified quote from a Lawrence Krauss lecture.  I've seen him lecture a few times, etc.  Very interesting guy.  Not everybody's taste but I love the sentiment.  One of those things things that helps put me in my place a bit when things aren't going well, etc.  Wouldn't have curved it up so much but I already have work on my left shoulder and I'll eventually be getting my right one done.  Next up, ankles, I think.

                                            Full quote:

                                            "Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded. And, the
                                            atoms in your left hand probably came from a different star than your
                                            right hand. It really is the most poetic thing I know about physics:
                                            You are all stardust. You couldn’t be here if stars hadn’t exploded,
                                            because the elements – the carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, iron, all the
                                            things that matter for evolution and for life – weren’t created at the
                                            beginning of time. They were created in the nuclear furnaces of stars,
                                            and tthe only way for them to get into your body is if those stars
                                            were kind enough to explode. So forget Jesus. The stars died so that
                                            you could be here today."
