Re: my tat?

I'm gettin the Japanese character for "father" on my lower back, same place basically as Colleen got her fairy. My Dad passed away when I was 15 and I was really close with him, so that's the significace. I wanted to get "père" in fancy writing across my lower back (because I'm 1/4 French from my Dad's side) but I thought the Japanese character would be nicer. For one, my Dad had a lot of close friends that were Japanese, and he was Buddhist. So yeah. It's not too big, about 3cm x 3cm...and I want it in all black. I'm also planning to get the outline of a red maple leaf on my inner right ankle, but we'll see. And I want some sort of subtle star thing somewhere as well. I don't know though. I don't want to go overboard because that will make my "Father" tattoo less meaningful and original. |

Be original. Chinese character of names are so popular. How about a chinese word that describes you. Or possibly a Chinese Proverb. Dragons are over done to. Blah. How about a Phoenix. They never die. Atleast your asian. It's kinda off for someone who isn't asian to get an asian tattoo. That's just my opnion.

Breezy's gettin a tattoo!!! :)
my friend is designing it for me.. and his art is so neat because there's hidden dragons in all his pictures... they're sorta abstract, very original, and I love it!... my plan is not finalized... but I would like to get one on my center lowerback.. and there will be a sorta symbolistic crow [or raven... whichever..] incorporated into it.. [with the wings outstreched... I have an idea in my mind that would look really nice]~
-why a crow u ask?- well our family is the Crowe family... it wuz my mom's maiden name [I dunno.. fer sum reason our family is really proud of that and my mom has all sorts of crow things and like native raven things].... and also [the main reason]~ me and my friend had this thing with crows.. I guess it started in grade seven [inside joke.. now it's like our "symbol of friendship/unity" thing]... and since she passed away recently... having this tattoo will serve as a symbol that she's always there with me [sorta like galaxie with the "father" tattoo].... and allllso... birds... to me, I think they stand for putting ideas to flight, reaching your goals, living your dreams.... and that has significance to me [since my one lifelong dream, my parents are totally puttin a total damper on, so this way I'll never forget about that dream and not let them stand in the way] and I thought with the hidden dragons, they would remind me that there's always trials and struggles in life... but the greater the challenge, the greater the gift waiting for u... [like, they're always there, hiding frum u.. but when u figure them out they are really beautiful and add to make up the whole picture... (these challenges actually benefit u..)] haha.. I dunno, I have all these symbolistic meanings in the tattoo I'm plannin on gettin~ so, hopefully soon I'll get a design on paper.. and then, on raw flesh!!! hehe :) ~breezy |
