popslinc said...: I got a tattoo in 1955 of two roses on my left forearm. Not big but it was pretty -- roses were red and leaves bright green. The outline was thin like a pencil line. Now the colors are gone and the outline is thick and blurred. This guy will be in the circus or lily farm when he grows up.; Thursday, April 24, 2014
Jack said...: Your portrait photo is exceptional. But, like the first two commenters, I do worry about how he will feel about this very visible art when he is older. That is the problem with tattoos . . . they are VERY permanent.; Friday, April 25, 2014
Bob Crowe said...: Apparently not him, and he's out to prove it. B&W was a good choice. Tattoos are a matter of strong personal taste. I can't stand them. My children have lots.; Friday, April 25, 2014

Unlike many comments that I read all the time everywhere, I do not worry at all for this guy in the future.
Everyone heavily tattooed or with big pieces (and I include myself on this) knows what she/he's doing. Of course tattoos will not have the exact same appearance in 40 years' time, but neither will we! It's just life.
And we'll be old, with wrinkles and old tattoos with washed-out colours, whereas others will only be old with wrinkles, that's all, no big deal!

Have a good day everyone!; Monday, July 07, 2014
