All script used for any writing will be in a cursive italic script, just because that is my favorite script to use in any writing

All tattoo locations are all areas I want tattooed. They don't hold any specific meaning towards the tattoos I chose

Poke #6Emily Martin

Calf Tattoo

I want to get this on my calf, minus the birds. A few years ago, I was going through a really hard time after someone close to me died. This was her favorite saying and I carry it with me in honor of her and for how dear she was to me.

Inbetween Breast Tattoo

I grew up Christian, and for me, a snake has always represented danger or evil. But even through evil, there has always been beauty and life. And so I want to combine these two, to repsent both life and death, evil and good, and the balance between them.

Thigh Tattoo

Perhaps I'm a little superstitious, but I beleive that dreamcatcher really do protect me from nightmares. I used to have really bad night terrors. My parents got me a dreamcatcher when I was a little girl, and I've never really had nightmares since I've had one. Therefore, I want one permantly on me all the time, because I do believe that it works.

Shoulder Tattoo:

My family, on my mother's side, has always passed down the name Rose, in honor of one of my great grandmother's who first moved to the Americas. My mom's middle name is Rose, as well as mine. And I would like to one day get this tattooed on my shoulder to represent my family heritage.

Back Tattoo

I want to have a big family. And it is my hope to have a lot of kids. And I want to get all my kinds names tattooed down the middle of my back. When I have children, they wil be my life and my joy, and literally my everything. And I want to express my love for them openly, and this is my way of doing it.

Back Across the Shoulders Tattoo

Again, related to my religious childhood, this is a scripture that has gottne me through all the tough moments in my life. I have been through a lot of pain in my life, and I'm sure there is more to come. But joy always comes after the pain, and it always worth whatever I have to go through to get there.
