The coffee tattoo project…

Ever since I was in my 20′s I wanted a tattoo. The only problem was, I didn’t really know what the tattoo would be. At the time I thought of the cliché tattoos (please don’t be offended if this is what you have) of Japanese script meaning faith, hope & love. Then I thought about a cross but could never really decide on what sort that would be.

As the body clock rounded the 27 mark, I had a bit of an idea of what I would eventually get. A coffee tattoo… what that was going to be then took another couple of years until I had conceptualised, sketched and decided exactly what I wanted in a tattoo. At 30, my friends decided to give me the final push and fund part of my tattoo. Here is stage 1…

The ink bit… well at least the initial drawing and conceptual design I had come up with.

So this is when it became real… No turning back!!!

The shading of the handle. It hurt a little more. Doesn’t look too good at this point!

… and here is the finish of stage one.

I’ll keep you posted. Colour is booked in for the 20th of December. Mick is too popular for me hahaha!
