tattoos

“have you any tattoos, brad?” “certainly not!”
“what about you, janet?” “show ’em the battleship!”

my good friend marco guzman and i designed this tattoo for me. the illuminated baby is from keith haring. we duplicated the artwork in a circle of ten to illustrate one in ten. it’s on my upper back between my shoulder blades.

for our 5th anniversary, kirk and i decided to get the hedwig artwork tattooed on our necks. it’s the same artwork that’s on our wedding rings, except that we switched artwork. my ring’s half is on kirk’s back, and vice-versa.

for our tenth anniversary, we’ll probably get them colored in.

and that’s the origin of love.

update: the nice folks at artsy found this page and liked it, and alerted me to their keith haring page, which is very nice and very comprehensive. check it out, and explore the rest of the site.

    Chuckie is doing well, not together anymore, after 10 yrs we decided to end it. But we’re still good friends. Yep, been back in SoFla since 2003, in Fort Lauderdale. Everything is good, steady job that pays the bills and doing the “art thing” on the side.
    In Breckenridge, Co. right now, on a skiing vacation… boyfriend couldn’t make it, so I’m here by myself… and so far I’ve only managed to sprain two fingers! Anyway… lots going on…. it was nice to hear from you…
