One of my upper arms has a beautiful photo realistic scene, that was done by my ex as a goodbye present … it was done in one 12 hour session, but doesn’t go around the arm as far as the ones I have on the other side do.
So, I’m going to ask an artist I trust to make a sort of picture frame for it, plus have something that wraps around all the way as a band, so it doesn’t fall off :-)
After that … I’m pretty well covered on my top half (neck, chest, top half of my back, both arms, hands) so either I’ll get a tramp stamp or start on my legs a little bit. No rush.
When I met her she already had a plan in motion to move to another city, to start a tattoo parlour of her own (since this area is already saturated with them).
I fell for her pretty hard - the first time we met I told her she could draw anything she wanted on that whole area … she put it off the whole time we were together, until the day before she left.
It’s a really beautiful tattoo. I still miss her a lot.

What’s the story behind your ex gifting you a goodbye tattoo?
