Very young to go for something that novel... not sure that will age well either.. very small details and the skin changing over the years.

Cheers Kef, what is the link with Greece.

I first went to Crete in 2001. In the middle of a top 5 divorces (in my view it was no 1) from hell, my dear friend decided to replace her Husband (who she had split with) name with mine on their holiday. I needed it. I was able to get the youngsters looked after.

I fell in love with the Greek culture. We went to Corfu and Zante over the next few years.

In 2006 Mr KK and I went to Kefelonia. We stopped in a little fishing village on the Ionian sea. That is when I found out that people aren't necessarily boring who go back to the same place every year. They have just found their paradise on earth. That is what Katelios Kefelonia became to us.

Look at my user name; Kef=short for Kefelonia and Kat short for Katelios
:14:

We have gone to Kef and Kat every year since. The Island is unspoiled by mass tourism. It is stop the world I have got off. It has enough contemporary feel to have your needs met yet still holds that Greek beauty, quietness and culture.

The love of Greece has just grown from there. I also have a Greek teacher, who lives in Kef. We do lessons by Skype.

A dear friend who is a Buddhist reckons I was a little Greek girl in a previous life.

So that's the link :18:
 
Got five hours booked for next tuesday.

Walking where angels fear to read on my back, face everything and rise on my foot and tribal circle on my delts!
 
if you squint it's definitely foxy and Hollis in a romantic embrace

a fitting tribute - it's for your arse right ?

Im thinking of getting a native american portrait on the inside of my left arm.

Doing a still life portrait class on Wednesday so going to hit up a few of them to get back my drawing rhythm before attempting to draft what I want.

My cousin drew the below theres too much going on in the headress so that'll be the first change and then I need to find some bird as inspiration for the facial part. Give my idea to the tattoo artist and let him polish it and add to it.

Like the first one KK without the sunglasses and with the water colour pain dripping a bit more. 2nd one is possibly a bit more feminine (not that the first is masculine)

Nice CDX
 
Just sayin:-

Smelly underclass with tattoos forcing people out of Kent town,

n an email to both men, the correspondent asked: "Realistically, what are you doing to remove from Ashford the unwashed, malodorous underclass with their tattoos and yellow teeth?

The comments section is absolute comedy gold Clive.

I'd happily bet the farm that that women is a Grade A snob who looks down on the plumber who comes to fix her boiler.
 
I think this guy summed it up with 1 example on the site, with this

You, are an ignorant, bigoted, sack of dog excrement. Not everyone who has tattoos is 'thick', or a criminal. A large number of us serve in the armed forces, protecting unworthy scum like you. Unjustifiably self-superior bell ends like you make me sick. You have absolutely NO idea what you're talking about, but you still sound of. I lost two of my best friends in the service of this country. They were inked too. And you're not fit to lick dirt from the soles of their boots.

LOL re the feminine bit on both. I just can not decide. I love them both for different reasons. I like the sun glasses on as it gives it an edge for me. It's quirky and different. I do agree over the water colour paint. It could do with a bit more dripping.

I think I will end up going with 1 this year, on my back or leg and the other 1 next year in the place I didn't have it this year as I love them both. It's the only way round it I can see atm

Thank you for the impute JF :18:
 
same arm, just one is in the mirror! I hate doing selfies!

The clear bits are still to be filled with lines but I'm not sure I want to do that now, quite like them clear (the M looking bit and the triangle by the glare in the photo)
