So much is going on, too much. And I'm not going to get into them on this online blog. But I did want to divulge in my newest project which is...
TATTOOS.
I have multiple ideas in my head...
Number one, being blackbirds... little ones, like this... to represent my husband... the song with special meaning for us being "Blackbird" by The Beatles <3 at a troubled time for me, when my husband was the ONLY one there for me.
Number two, being lyrics from a song to represent my younger brother who is my best friend besides my husband... he left for the National Guard, and I am very proud of him. It is the song "Sister" by Dave Matthews which basically talks about a close bond between Dave and his sister... which is how I always felt about Anthony. He always understood me more than anyway else did. Our childhood was awesome. And here are those lyrics...
Number three could be a number of things, and I can't choose! But I want it to be a half-sleeve.
One idea I was thinking of getting was a drawing that I did... inspired by the movie, The Fountain... The combination of the Tree of Life and underneath, the drawing I did of a woman deep within the earth whose limbs are roots coming out of the ground. The belief that after we die we become a part of this earth and continue forever. Death is the road to awe. Basically, death is just the beginning.
Another idea was a collage of Lord of the Rings locations... Bagend, Rivendell and Lothlorien or Fanghorn Forest with an Ent in the foreground and a quote along the bottom from my favorite character, Samwise Gamgee, "Even darkness must pass."
Or maybe modifying a Alphonse Mucha painting with sunflowers... he's one of my favorite artists... this one I'm partial to!
I also wanted a a tribute to Where the Wild Things Are and the Beatles.
I could be all tatted up easy lol.
We shall see though...
