Because You Asked

"Michael Lee" is my husband. I love the delicate beauty of the single rose, complete with the thorns. Life and love aren't without their own difficulties, but those just serve as a reminder of how beautiful it is to have someone to walk hand-in-hand with during the tough times. I chose a black and grey tattoo because I wanted a portrait of a rose, and not the classic rose tattoo. That was just too "cartoony" for me. I also wanted to have a tattoo that is large enough to look crisp and clear, and not look like a blob over time.
