A work in progress!

What a day, it was day 2 in the hands of the capable Don Carter of Bone Spear Custom Tattoo. The more I look at this tattoo the more I love it. Friday was night one and there was much swelling to be had after a couple hours of inking. Well today there was still a little swelling and I was swelling much faster. Gotta hate it when you have that kind of skin. Anyway, Don began the shadowing and color in the tiger's face and also hit some of the shadowing in the upper bamboo section. Now I must heal for 1 - 2 weeks and then return for him to finish up the color and shadowing.

I really am in awe of his work, as he works (when I got the chance to peek) he has such an expression of extreme concentration. But it goes a bit beyond that...it is something you only see in an artist or craftsman when they are focused. I would not have been surprised if the Tiger did not actually talk to Don. LOL Well I guess you would have had to been there and seen it for yourself.

But, this is the wonderful tattoo he is doing....



More as we go but that is all for today! Don, if you read this....I LOVE IT! Thanks so much.
