More Tattoo Pics

[catelin]

We're making progress, slowly but surely. I'm pleased with everything so far. All the shading and outlining's done. Next sitting, I get color!

wow.
amazing.
how many hours do you have so far?

[catelin.livejournal.com]

Probably around fifteen. He's actually pretty fast. And a light touch, which makes sitting for longer times MUCH easier.

[daisydumont.livejournal.com]

that's already beautiful! i so look forward to seeing it all colored in.

[catelin.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Vicki. Yeah, me too! I can't wait to see what a difference color makes! : )

[buscemi.livejournal.com]

That looks really great! Did you give the artist a rough sketch, or just some concepts to work with?

[catelin.livejournal.com]

Thanks. Yeah, I had some ideas and my very rudimentary sketch, but Chris turned it all into something that was far beyond what I'd even envisioned. He's really, really good and a nice guy to boot!

[channelinglucy.livejournal.com]

That is truly breathtaking. And I'm not even a big tatoo fan but I recognize art when I see it.

[catelin.livejournal.com]

I always think the best compliment you can get on a tattoo is from someone who doesn't ordinarily care for them. Thanks. : )

Dear Cate:

[talkshowhost.livejournal.com]

Will you marry me? *grin*

Love, Steven

Re: Dear Cate:

[catelin.livejournal.com]

Ha!! Too cute, Steven! : )

[kenhighcountry.livejournal.com]

That is just fantastic.
I can't wait to see it when it's finished.
It makes you looks so...dressed.

[catelin.livejournal.com]

Hehe! It does, doesn't it? Maybe it will throw the neighbors off a bit when I'm running around chasing skunks at 4 a.m.

Mabel: Good Lord! She's at it again!
Vern: Yeah, but at least she's got a shirt on this time.

I had never suspected you of being a yakuza.

[catelin.livejournal.com]

Well, now you know. So behave. ; )

[ex-muzer409.livejournal.com]

God, that is SOOO outrageously stunningly GORGEOUS!

[catelin.livejournal.com]

Thanks!! I love it even more than I thought I would.

[shrijani.livejournal.com]

Way, way cool. Gorgeous.

I'm gearing up to get a smallish magpie on my arm. I'm a little scared, but having lived with more than one bad-tempered cats, I'm thinking I can hack it?

[catelin.livejournal.com]

Heh!! No doubt, you can hack it. Cat claws are waaaay worse!

[theotoky.livejournal.com]

absolutely stunning, catelin. beautiful.

[catelin.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[froglegs.livejournal.com]

Really beautiful work, that is going to be amazing when complete! =)

[catelin.livejournal.com]

It changes so much as he works on it. I am really looking forward to seeing how different it looks with color.

[lolliejean.livejournal.com]

Simply beautiful.

[catelin.livejournal.com]

Thanks.

[rockstarbob.livejournal.com]

*Exquisite*

[catelin.livejournal.com]

It's definitely been an undertaking, but it means a lot to me too...which I'll explain once it's all done.

Holy Toledo! Woman,

[fayzee.livejournal.com]

That is fantastic, and here I am, 74 years old and wanted to get just one tatoo, so I settle for a stick on every Sturgis rally season. I admire your fortitude...fayzee

Re: Holy Toledo! Woman,

[catelin.livejournal.com]

Ha!! I admire your fortitude for braving Sturgis!!! That's too many people in one place at one time for me!

[ex-verdandi713.livejournal.com]

I don't even like tattoos and I love this. Beautiful work. :-)

[catelin.livejournal.com]

That's the greatest compliment I could hope for! Thanks, Vali!

[lo-pan.livejournal.com]

Wow. Something like that makes me want to go spend all of my imaginary money on covering my body in ink.

[catelin.livejournal.com]

Every time I look at myself now, I think of that old "Illustrated Man" movie with Rod Steiger. (Maybe before your time.)

[4hour-ramona.livejournal.com]

oh. my.

wow!

[catelin.livejournal.com]

: )

[anoisblue.livejournal.com]

Damn Cate, it's excellent!! Your Chris does wonderful work.

[catelin.livejournal.com]

He was actually a formally trained artist before he started tattooing. I think that makes a huge difference. He's a sweetheart!

[ex-blurt634.livejournal.com]

I may have asked you this before, but are they going to be scratch-n-sniff?

[catelin.livejournal.com]

(In my best Mae West) Honey, every part of my body is scratch-n-sniff. ; )

[tsarina.livejournal.com]

Neat, neat, neat!!!!!
(and I find myself looking at those, saying, I know where she's standing in the house. :P)

Hopefully tomorrow my Christmas pics will come back from the photo lab, and I have one for you.

[catelin.livejournal.com]

I miss you!!! It's been too long since we've seen each other! Let's definitely get together after the first of the year, ok?

[archon.livejournal.com]

bad ass! (no pun intended)

[catelin.livejournal.com]

Hahaha! Smartypants! ; )

Awesome!

[ex-fireangel472.livejournal.com]

I love your tatoos AND your plumber crack! You would be awesome to draw.

Re: Awesome!

[catelin.livejournal.com]

Wow! Thanks! : )

[daikusei.livejournal.com]

Quelle magnifique!

[catelin.livejournal.com]

Merci! : )

[coollibrarian.livejournal.com]

that's beautiful

[catelin.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

[stardances.livejournal.com]

Wow! Too Groovy! Even the triple goddess has a different, lovely fuller look to it, I can't wait to see it with color! You have a good artist working on your back! Hope Yule brings the gift of many wonderful unexpected pleasures and much love!

[catelin.livejournal.com]

He's really great and super nice as well! Brightest of blessings and love to your and yours, dear lady. I feel honored to know you.
