tattoo love

it will not come as a shock when i say that I love flowers... so much so that my boyfriend dare not buy me any for valentines day because i have too many favourites that he cant identify and also i'll know exactly how much he bought them for, how much they would have cost at the market and i'd over analyse the colours and intentions ;) so i excuse him from this tradition :)

i've been searching for years for the perfect tattoo that reflects my love of flowers... but also the fractal nature of foliage... i've googled and googled and just the other night i stumbled upon Shannon Archuleta's
website. Based in San Fran, I now have an even more compelling reason to visit.
