Shake Your Tail Feather!

I swore off tattoos after my 3rd one in 2002 due to the extreme pain, but in the last year I have gained a little courage and have had a itch for some new ink. I knew that I wanted to get a peacock feather tattooed on either my back or the side of my ribcage. There is no real story behind the feather, just that peacocks are beautiful and prideful and so am I...HA! I researched several tattoo shops and artists here in New York and ended up at Saved Tattoo in Williamsburg, Brooklyn with guest tattoo artist Henry Lewis from San Fransisco. During the tattoo a Chinese tv show came in and asked permission to film us and even interviewed me about all of my tattoos. Thank goodness I will never get see the show and how rediculous I sounded :)

Henry was super funny, very nice, and OBVIOUSLY an amazing artist. It was just as painful as I remembered, I whined like a baby the whole time. It came out better than I imagined and even more colorful, bottom line I LOVE it and Im ready for more soon!
