NSFW: Tattooed grandmother - Page 2

I guess that is true...I didn't think of that!

I think about it every time I pass through a metal detector.

My first thought was that, much like a hotel carpet, the busy pattern serves to hide the stains.

This reflects my artistic aesthetic more than my opinion of full-body tattooing, however--I just like things that my brain can interpret, that's all. Too much crammed into one place without any apparent cohesiveness is not appealing to me. I have seen many tattoo sleeves or other large murals that I've liked.

I love this comment. I shall keep it in mind for when I can't stand my stretchmarks any more.

That's good, I was wondering if I was odd for first noticing the shape of her body, instead of the fact that a naked grandmother was shaking her groove thang on my screen. That much work sort of blends together from this distance.

it does. it's a very traditional style, but I prefer more white space. Age tends to blur the lines, so white space around images makes them clearer in the long run.

I love the contrast between hands/head/neckline and the rest of it. Wearing a suit and tights, apart from the nose piercings, there's no hint as to what is underneath -the hair and makeup and nail polish are pretty old fashioned/mainstream -not a hint of rebellion in sight!

Except for the horns.

She's only 26 you know. (she had a hard life

)

Definitely performance art. I've got tats, but only a few. I'm not inclined to get more at this point in my life, but no doubt there'll come a time when I feel the urge again.

I don't think I'll ever be able to afford to get my whole body covered though...unless I go on a diet...

monster · 01-14-2008, 10:03 PM

Horns aren't normal?

xoxoxoBruce · 01-14-2008, 10:11 PM

For tattooed grandmothers? Yes.

classicman · 01-14-2008, 10:36 PM

Think she babysits the grandkids much?

Cloud · 01-14-2008, 10:49 PM

why shouldn't she? I mean, that's all covered, you know.

monster · 01-14-2008, 10:49 PM

I reckon she got a bottle of gin and when she passed out, the grandkids found the permanent markers....

Cloud · 01-14-2008, 10:51 PM

connect the dots?
