I think they are the ultimate form of self-expression.....or pretty damn close anyways! I have two full sleeves which took about 18 years all told to finish as well as a tribal piece on my right thigh, one on each shoulder blade and one at the base of my neck. Most people think I'm crazy, but I like them and that is all that counts as far as I am concerned. Many of them were drawn by myself, or friends and I even have one that my son drew for me. A good friend of mine that I grew up with did most of the work, but I did some of the stuff on my left arm (I'm right handed), including some coloring and shading.
