Need opinions on this tat...


Need opinions on this tat...

Well the time has come, I have set the date to have some ink done at New Hope Gallery Tattoo. Wanted a general consensus. This is what Im getting on my bicep. Its from the sketchbook of my favorite artist...Mark Ryden. I am not vain enough to get my own art on my arm, nor do I feel my work has reached its peak for that yet. Let me know what you think...

Yea, getting a tattoo is quite personal after all. Mark Ryden is an awesome artist though. The sketch reminded me of this piece of art I came across some time ago:

Interesting read over here maybe, has some parts about Chante Ishta (the one eye of the heart):

Japanese employees get their company name tattooed to show respect - why not do the same here and get this... ;)
