OM MANI PADME HUM

Yuri, this is your tattoo design. Yes, another one. My sister was talking about tattoos with her unofficial Brazilian 'boyfriend' and he asked me if I would draw his. He wanted part of the sign 'om mani padme hum' so that has been incorporated on one of the petals of the lotus flower.

The lotus flower was chosen as it apparently means faithfulness - my brother recently got a lotus flower as a tattoo to represent his faithfulness to his girlfriend of five years (five years in one week).

This was probably one of my quickest drawings, only taking an hour and a half. But its pretty noticeable that it was quick as it doesn't half as much detail as the others.

Until next time . . .

COMPASS

Sorry about the shadows on this one. My sister was trying to take a photo of it the same time that I was. This picture, surprisingly, didn't take that long to complete. It was one 55-minute art class and about two hours after school.

My sister wants this as a tattoo, but I do as well and we both want it in the same place (top of the foot, near the toes). Sadly she's gonna get it before me because I have to wait until I'm 18 and she is 18 in 3 months. 

Damn her . . . 

I love the design on this and I think that without the feathers it would look quite boring, but they were the hardest part. Just trying to get the right shape with them drove me crazy.

Until next time . . .
