Still unfinished piece. But a great story behind the banner and words-
The "PMA" (Positive Mental Attitude. Something very fitting to its owner!) is something I drew on my friend Ariel's arm for our friend Griffin to tattoo on her in her living room a few years ago. Then as my very very very first tattoo, even before that antler I posted earlier, I did that little banner and touched up the wobbly "PMA." Then, to our shock and grief, Griffin passed away this summer. Ariel had been talking about getting poppy tattoos before, but now they had a different meaning. Poppies are the flower of death, and now remembrance. I can't wait to finish this lovely transformative and important tattoo.
