• My First Tat

  Public Image shared by Lesley Rockafellow Webster to Tattoos on 10/04/2008

  This is my first tattoo, just inked in August this year (2008).  After wanting one for years I finally decided on something I felt was deeply symbolic of my life, especially over the past year.  Even though this photo was taken immediately following the procedure, I'm happy to report that the ...

• My Newest Ink -- Final color

  Public Image shared by frank smith to Tattoos on 09/20/2008
