  • LOVE DON’T LIVE HERE

    Rubie Irene sends us these lovely knuckles:

    I got these done a few days ago (8/30/2010). I have numerous tattoos but none have really been as meaningful as these ones. I am jaded and cynical and unwelcoming. It’s all been a process. I am not saying I will never love again, but for now, it doesn’t live in my heart. I want to forget the bad things. Welcome the new. Sullen I know, but it is what it is.

    My artist really laughed his @ss off when I told him there absolutely NEEDED to be an apostrophe. I think it makes the tattoo. Says he has never done one with punctuation before.

    Done by Angel Murrietta in Pacific, WA.

  • STIL HERE

    Hey Shane! I’m finally getting your knuckles up on the site! All it took was your artist sending them in. Here is what Philip has to say:

    My name is Philip Corbin, I tattooed “STIL HERE” on Shane Watkins knuckles because after 14 years of tattooing in Austin, Texas he’s still holding it down, and he’s STIL HERE! I feel honored he picked me to do them! WORD SON!

    Artist: Philip Corbin
    Collector: Shane Watkins
    Shop: Atomic Tattoo 309 W MLK. Austin, Texas

    Thanks for sending those in Philip, Shane and I would have just talked it to death.
