Draw on Me

Would you?

Well not on my skin, but on yourself and then not by your own hands (so no pen doodles...), but a tattoo artist?

Tattoo artists are incredibly skilled (Miami Ink anyone?) and I don't think I would have the courage to do it; to actually put a tattoo on someone. I mean, the skin is your canvas and mistakes can't be fixed. Of course they have their amount of training and practice, but to throw away a cotton canvas is much easier than your skin. Okay disturbing image in my mind how someone would throw away his skin...moving on!

A while back my aunt asked me to design a tattoo for her. She really likes unicorns, so I got sketching and out of the bunch of rough drawings, I made a more clear drawing of the ones below:

Placement of the tattoo, will be on her shoulder blade, so in my opinion I liked the one with the head & wings the best. Without telling her this, she liked that one best too. So I will make a final drawing of that one. She probably get it done next week, so if she's fine with it, I'll post a picture of the actual tattoo on her skin. Pretty cool to have someone walking around with my design on her skin.

Personally, I was playing with the idea to get a tattoo in the near future, but I'm not sure. If I would get one it would have a story to it and one I designed myself. I like to change things up way too much and we all know that once you have a tattoo...it's there forever *echo*. So not sure if I ever going to get one.

To stay in the unicorn theme! My mug for my lovely & sweet friend Ashley, finally arrived at her home! She loves unicorns too. Admit it people, unicorns are pretty awesome. She wrote such a sweet post for me! Thanks so much Bella! It was my pleasure and remember...do use it once in a while. It is a mug afterall hehe ^_^

I added this card for her too:

Final thing before I go: Most of you know that I didn't participate throughout the whole Zero2illo challenge. I got till like week 5, before things got too hectic for me. You can find posts about this here, here and here.
Now there is a mini Zero2illo challenge, to complete a few portfolio pieces. The Tea Party illustration shall be finished and I have a few others in mind! I will combine this week's piece and next week's piece in one post, somewhere next week. So stay tuned for this.

Oh I got a new "Contact me" button too. I will adjust the size later; it needs to be a bit bigger. I actually wanted to put this one first:
Who doesn't like to fly ^_^?

So back to the tattoo part. Do you like tattoos? If you have any and want to share it; what do you have? If you don't like it, why is that? Feel free to share your thoughts.

Have a great weekend and till next time.
Ciao!
