ink and flattery

today i received an email from an illustration student at Mass Art who sent some pics of their new tattoo. low and behold it was one of my paintings on their arm! WHOA, right!? it thought it to be pretty damn flattering to do so. the tattoo artist did a mighty fine job at translating the image (Justin K at Fat Ram's Pumpkin Tattoo). thank for sending Landen.

addition
