I love how the artwork has grown and flowered with you. And I like the shedding of petals: it's the price of moving on.</p> <p>I'm contemplating some more ink myself, something big this time. Following this with interest! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-tatoo-update#post-1681176 Sat, 18 Jun 2016 22:16:27 +0000 deb 1681176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I went to my appointment yesterday and discussed my desires. Bill, the artist, is working on the sketch and should have it done in a couple of weeks. We will talk modifications and approval then. I have an appoint for the end of August to have the actual work done. I was lucky to get in them due to a cancellation otherwise it would be seven or eight months. He is that booked out. I will keep you updated. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-tatoo-update#post-1681047 Sat, 18 Jun 2016 14:35:53 +0000 Anonymous 1681047@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deb that's very sweet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-tatoo-update#post-1681028 Sat, 18 Jun 2016 13:28:30 +0000 Anonymous 1681028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a beautiful tattoo story, Deb, I love the fact that you have used the same artist over the years. Interesting to see the different reactions in the thread above. When I first read this, I hoped your new tattoo *would* include dropped petals. I'm at the stage in my life where I've consciously dropped/discarded baggage and I love the idea of finding symbolic ways of showing that. </p> <p>Hope all went well yesterday and you're happy with the results. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-tatoo-update#post-1680387 Fri, 17 Jun 2016 07:11:23 +0000 Jane 1680387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sooooo cool. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-tatoo-update#post-1680093 Thu, 16 Jun 2016 19:29:04 +0000 RoseandJoan 1680093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A lovely sentimental tattoo Deb.</p> <p>Do you have that nervous excited feeling? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-tatoo-update#post-1679961 Thu, 16 Jun 2016 14:46:28 +0000 Anonymous 1679961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great idea!&nbsp; Although you don't seem like you're at the "dropping petals" stage at all.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-tatoo-update#post-1679949 Thu, 16 Jun 2016 14:26:19 +0000 Eliza 1679949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a cool way to make your history visual.

Not sure is you mean that as a bouquet.

A Full blown rose is the most fragrant. I thought you meant that you were doing a bouquet with roses in various stages. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-tatoo-update#post-1679717 Thu, 16 Jun 2016 03:03:28 +0000 deb 1679717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, it will show dropped petals.&nbsp; I am there in my life and am proud I made it this far. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-tatoo-update#post-1679705 Thu, 16 Jun 2016 02:48:26 +0000 Anonymous 1679705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just as long as your tattooed rose isn't starting to drop petals </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-tatoo-update#post-1679701 Thu, 16 Jun 2016 02:45:35 +0000 deb 1679701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have an appointment&nbsp;on Friday to get my tattoo updated. I originally got my first tattoo in 1985 when I was 31. It was a rose bud that was visible just above my bikini on my hip. When I was 40 I had it updated into a half open rose. It represented that time in my live. Then when I was 50 I it became a fully open rose. At that time in my life I felt that was where I was both physically and emotionally.&nbsp; All of these tattoos were done by the same artist and luckily, he is still doing work. I will see him on Friday. This iteration I want all stages represented in my tattoo. I have&nbsp;rough sketches of my vision and am looking forward to what he comes up with. I will keep you posted. Attached is a photo as the rose as it currently 'is'. I regret not taking photos of its earlier versions but no crying over spilt milk.. </p>
