inked...a weekend tease...

remember this post

after some requests

I thought I would tease you a bit

and give you a glimpse of what my tattoo artist

has been working on these past 6 weeks

I go for my -hopefully-final session this coming week
to shade in the colour and add a few more elements

old being wrapped by the new

becoming

one

beautiful

piece 

of art...
a true refection
of my soul

What
in your life
 is a reflection of you
 my lovelies?


Love and Light
(I took those pics myself, in the mirror, I had a hard time taking a shot of the roots but you get the idea)


adding this because it made me so happy this morning 
while I was
driving in the truck with the Puppy Prince
 on the way back from checking on the swans at the dyke...

inked...

a few weeks ago I went under the needle

I am so happy with the out come

"the messenger"

"the boys"

green one for the oldest

purple one for the younger

(they chose their colours)

buds for grandchildren???

these flowers are a part of a bigger piece that will be started later this month

aside from this tattoo I have four others on my back

and the piece I am getting done

will tie all those individual tattoos together

it is part of the journey

as each tattoo I have received has marked something

in my life

the first one started with my first child

with these recent two there are eight in total

each as meaningful as the next

but this next one

the "big" one

will bring it all together

as I feel is very reflective in my life right now

I know I am still journeying

but I have never felt so myself

as I do now

it is an amazing time

everyday comes with it's challenge

but

I am here

I am me

and it is good

What brings you to center today my lovelies?

Love and Light
