Why Shoulder Blade Tattoos?

Why Shoulder Blade Tattoos? 

Just think of all the places on your body that you can wear ink. There's really a lot of space isn't there? So what makes a person choose one location over another? Usually it depends on just how much they want to display their body art.

Some tat enthusiasts are willing to lay it all on the line with bold tattoos that aren't easily concealed. They're willing to let the world see their ink any place, any time. Other ink lovers prefer a little more control over where and when they share their body art.

If you're looking for a spot that can be masculine or feminine, seductive or sensational, yet can still be covered up when you don't feel like sharing then consider the shoulder blade. It's a great canvas, but if you choose to cover it no one will know you even have a tat. This can come in handy if having body art isn't conducive to your current working environment.

Tyger, Tyger Burning Bright!

This is my fourth tattoo and the one I pondered the least.

If you've been reading, you know the premise: 2010 marks the Year of the Tiger in the Chinese Zodiac, and when I heard that Thicker Than Water Tattoo Studio, a new shop on the Lower East Side, was doing a special tiger-inking event for the new year, I grew interested.

When I saw the flash drawn for the event, I knew I wanted one. And, after talking with artist Shon Lindauer, he drew up a special one for me, and the rest was history. Because he wanted to put more time into it, we scheduled the session for Sunday, after the Saturday of the Tiger, and did it on the third, happy half-birthday to me.

So why a Tiger? Aside from the topical (thank heavens it wasn't year of the Rabbit), I can say I have connections to tigers.

My favorite baseball team is Detroit, and I spent four years at Occidental College in L.A., home of the Tigers. In that sense, since 1985, I have been part-Tiger.

But like most tattoos, meanings grow and new meanings emerge. I am a poet, and what writer is worth their salt if they heard the word tiger and didn't think of William Blake?

THE TYGER (from Songs Of Experience)

By William Blake

Tyger! Tyger! burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

In what distant deeps or skies
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand dare sieze the fire?

And what shoulder, & what art.
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And when thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand? & what dread feet?

What the hammer? what the chain?
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? what dread grasp
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?

When the stars threw down their spears,
And watered heaven with their tears,
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?

Tyger! Tyger! burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

1794

And so I strode onto Avenue B with a sense of purpose, and a desire to go under the needle again. And the snow flurried but I did not feel the cold. I knew, soon enough, that I would feel the fire from the tattoo machine.

Even in my most positive frame of mind, I didn't dream that this great drawing


would become this much bigger and more colorful tattoo:


And one of the many things I love about it is, that at a slightly different angle, the perspective shifts significantly:


Lucky me, Shon worked with mechanical precision, and I was his first client that got to experience his new custom shader, built by Seth Ciferri.

The tattoo was done in under two and a half hours, and the reviews have been overwhelmingly positive. I love it.

Thanks to Shon Lindauer for his hard work on this awesome tattoo and the staff at Thicker than Water for welcoming me into their shop.

Custom Tattoo Designs for Girls

Custom Tattoo Designs for Girls : It is impossible to get a tattoo that will make everyone around you jealous if it is not a custom tattoo design. I am sure you are already smart enough to know that but believe it or not most people think they can go down to their local tattoo parlor and get a tattoo that is original and unique. People who do that are the kind of people who either go online to find a really cool tattoo or just pick one out at the tattoo place and get it. Then they walk around thinking it is really cool while other people laugh at them.

I am assuming you want to avoid people laughing at your tattoo right? You have already taken the first step by being here at this site. There is no better way to get a custom design then to look on the internet because you will have the whole world giving you advice!

However, I will warn you that you have to be careful. You will find plenty of sites that have a gallery of tattoos. But most of these free sites only offer 50-100 tattoos to look at and all the free sites seem to show the same types of tattoos. This is bad news for us because think about how many people search the internet for tattoo designs? It has to be a ton of people. I am sure the majority of them chose a design from the site you are looking at.

Another problem is the fact that some sites charge you way to much money. We highly recommend you stay away from the sites that are going to make you pay over 50 dollars to view the whole gallery. Actually, there are plenty of sites you can join that are under forty dollars.

It is crucial that you get a tattoo that has a lot of meaning to you. Although getting a cool tattoo is what we are wanting to do, you will enjoy the tattoo much better if you get one that has a lot of meaning behind it.

The Year o' the Tiger Has Begun...

Happy New Year from all of us here at Tattoosday!

2009 was a banner year for us as we reached an even broader audience, racking up 317,000 hits, almost triple what we had seen here in 2008. We're looking forward to welcoming even more visitors in the coming year.

Yesterday, I paid a little visit to Thicker Than Water Tattoo Studio on the Lower East Side where, as I mentioned in the previous post, the good folks were inking tiger tattoos to celebrate the upcoming Year of the Tiger. At $50 a pop for these tiger specials, the artists had a steady stream of clients asking to get their tiger stripes for the upcoming year.

Despite frigid temperatures with single-digit wind chills, clients were still drifting in when I left later in the evening.

I did get to watch as Shon Lindauer worked on Jennifer, who added this cute little tiger to her collection of over thirty tattoos:


Jennifer was born in the Year of the Tiger, so it seemed appropriate to take advantage of this super deal that the artists at Thicker Than Water were offering.

It was also great to see Peter Caruso again, who tattoos at the shop three days a week. Pete appeared here on Tattoosday and subsequently inked this piece on me last Spring. He even had his own set of flash for the January 2 promotion:


As I bundled up to brace myself against the cold, customers were drifting in from Avenue B and a young lady checked out the flash to decide on another tiger tattoo. With a few more hours to go, it looked like the artists were going to be busy.

As for me, many may be wondering if I joined the ranks of the tiger-tattooed. Check back tomorrow to see if I have anything new to share...

Happy New Year and thanks for continuing to visit us here on Tattoosday.
