Just in case you were curious of why I got the particular one that I did, I figure I'd explain it here.

Here is the rough version of My Tattoo design:

Since I digitally designed it it is rough and needs to be smoothed over/shaded and made so that it would look good. I gave the guy "artistic ( Read more... )

Yea, when you have several years go into the thought of the design it allows for a lot of time to come up with what it means and why.

The Celtic KnotI've also always loved Celtic Knots and what they symbolize as well as their connection to my heritage. Incorporating one into ( ... )
