Tattoo A


Looking at tattoo A many things come to mind on who this person is and why they would get this tattoo. Just by viewing the size of this person’s leg and noticing that it is shaved, I’m going to assume that this is a caucasian woman probably around 20-25 years old. By the choice of pastel blues and pinks, she might be kind of girly. You can tell that she has a high pain tolerance because the shin area is super boney which would be a sensitive spot to get a tattoo. By tattooing the milky way on her leg maybe she is interested in astronomy and the mystery of space. By acquiring the knowledge about astronomy, she is probably educated about science and is maybe even a science major. I definitely feel that this person is still either in college or graduate school because of the converse shoes and blue jeans. Maybe she got that tattoo because she is passionate about science. Maybe she got it because it represents mystery and the unknown. Maybe it represents a type of heaven or oasis, maybe she lost someone recently. Or maybe she got the tattoo to be inspired because stars and space are often associated with dreams and to “reach for the stars”.

    Nice work! I especially dug the commentary you provided on the tat's pastel coloring. Indeed, such a color preferance might indicate something about the owner's aesthetic sensabilities.
