Here it is, the letter Zee (or Zed if you are American) on the back of my calf.

I’ve had a drawing of this tattoo in my notebook for almost 2 years. I don’t think the tattoo really needs an explanation; it’s pretty blunt and obvious, no deep meaning behind it. I’m a bit of a narcissist and I love my name.

My good friend Robin drew me another picture and it is beautiful, but it was a little too ornate to be that small so I stuck with my original drawing.

My tattoo artist, Bill McVey at Artistic Impressions in St. Catharines, was highly recommended by one of my fave servers at the Thirsty Cactus in Dundas. Steve (the server) has these amazing sleeve of bug tattoos and the colouring is just amazing, like no other tattoos I’ve seen before. Jamie spotted Steve’s tattoos one night, knowing I’ve been looking for an artist for some time.

It was well worth the wait (and the drive) but man, was I reminded how much those suckers hurt.
