I was born in November and so am under the Scorpio zodiac sign. I just kept playing with the design until I found something I was happy with.Ĭan you tell us what your tattoo symbolises? As I had always drawn and been creative from a young age, I knew I wanted to have control over the design and exactly what it looked like. I always considered that getting a tattoo was something deeply symbolic and personal to that person. You designed your tattoo yourself and I'm wondering if that was important for you? I also wanted to do something a bit rebellious to mark the transition into adulthood.Ī lot of people get pre-designed tattoos from tattoo artists. It was the first time I thought that tattoos could be beautiful and I loved the idea of using your body like a canvas.

I had bought Incubus's CD Morning View and in the flyer there were photographs of the band with these beautiful tattoos. I knew I wanted a tattoo from about the age of 16, so spent the intervening time till it was legal (18) thinking about and working on the design. How old were you when you got your first tattoo and do you remember what motivated you to get it?
