I had a client have to rebook their appointment for today about a week ago, so we penciled Teagan in to get a one shot tattoo on her inner arm that I drew for her... well... I can't even remember when I did the drawing....  it was a while ago...  So today I had the morning free to work on a few paintings, make a line copy, and then picked her up from school and headed over to the studio.

I get super nervous now when I have to tattoo my wife...  I don't know why... well, that's a lie.  I know exactly why... I obviously want it to be really good.  Not that I don't want every tattoo to be really good... but you understand... it's my wife.... I'll be seeing it quite a bit.

I couldn't decide on colours, so I'm glade Teagan stepped in and picked purple and pink.  I'm really happy with her colour choices.  I had never considered a purple owl, but  I love purple, and I've never tattooed a purple owl before!

Again, this tattoo was drawn for my wife specifically...

Please do not steal this tattoo...  

If you are a tattoo collector, please do not print this off and take it to a tattooist to have them tattoo it on you...

If you are a tattooist, please do not trace this and put it one someone else....

...I'd be really upset if I saw this tattoo on someone else....
