Four from Christine

I met Christine at the <a href="http://www.yelp.com/topic/new-york-trader-joes-uws">Trader Joe's</a> on the Upper West Side yesterday evening and she shared these four tattoos:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOGI55aLDTS8NBes2fCSU1Pv1XidIB1fHWfrs9iewZHwL0CHC1I3gqIqefX4pUxxCKghLcOsjj9FMjOr5LSldXOx3AGVOBYQpQW1gOhyphenhyphen5jwihGbn2rzT2ntx083x0WNq1ElkQIu8ORRTQ/s1600/Christine.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOGI55aLDTS8NBes2fCSU1Pv1XidIB1fHWfrs9iewZHwL0CHC1I3gqIqefX4pUxxCKghLcOsjj9FMjOr5LSldXOx3AGVOBYQpQW1gOhyphenhyphen5jwihGbn2rzT2ntx083x0WNq1ElkQIu8ORRTQ/s400/Christine.jpg" width="335" /></a></div><br />Moving clockwise from the upper left in the photo above, we start with an outline of <a href="http://brooklyn.com/">Brooklyn</a>, in honor of the borough in which Christine was born and raised.<br /><br />At the top of the other forearm is an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Om">om</a> symbol, which captures her focus and has occasionally "helped with panic attacks."<br /><br />The two butterflies on opposite arms were inked in honor of her nieces, who both love these colorful insects. The shade of each represents their favorite colors.<br /><br />The Brooklyn piece was inked at <a href="http://asylumtattoostudios.com/">Asylum Studios</a> in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn. The om and the butterflies were done by artists at <a href="http://www.threekingstattoo.com/site/">Three Kings Tattoo</a>. Both shops are in Brooklyn and have had work appear on Tattoosday previously <a href="http://tattoosday.blogspot.com/search/label/Asylum%20Studios">here</a> (Asylum) and <a href="http://tattoosday.blogspot.com/search/label/Three%20Kings%20Tattoo">here</a> (Three Kings).<br /><br />Thanks to Christine for sharing these four of her eleven (!) tattoos with us here on Tattoosday!<br /><br /><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:WordDocument> <w:View>Normal</w:View> <w:Zoom>0</w:Zoom> <w:Compatibility> <w:BreakWrappedTables/> <w:SnapToGridInCell/> <w:WrapTextWithPunct/> <w:UseAsianBreakRules/> </w:Compatibility> <w:BrowserLevel>MicrosoftInternetExplorer4</w:BrowserLevel> </w:WordDocument> </xml><![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 10]> <style> /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman";}</style> <![endif]--> <br /><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: x-small;">This entry is ©2011 Tattoosday.<br /><br />If you are reading this on another web site other than Tattoosday, without attribution, please note that it has been copied without the author's permission and is in violation of copyright laws.
