Life sized baboon hand print, Asian Arowana, shark, octopus...
I love arowana. They are so pretty and powerful. I almost got a small one when I had my 100gallon like 10 yrs ago.. wouldn't have lasted too long though lol. It would have out grown that pretty quickly lol.. Same with sharks. I'm planning on getting something similar to this but with colors that go with my manta rays and my artists own twist to it.

The silver arowana from South America are pretty cool. I like the Australian jardini ones too. But NOTHING compares to the Asians. Not in personality or in appearance.

These are my right and left upper arms.
My oldest tattoo is the right arm.
A 1960s KAWASAKI rivermark over a Japanese flag.
(Most of my riding buddies had HARLEY tattoos. I mean, how original!)
The left arm is a commemorative of my first date with my wife.
(She's really into wolves)
Since we married on a leap year, we still celebrate this anniversary

This one on my chest was my X wifes name.
Now it's just some flowers, etc.
It's the one I regret. Though it could be incorporated into a larger piece later on.
I was considering a water/koi themed tattoo....
Oh, and it's upside down in the photo.
I got this tattoo in trade for doing some work on someone's motorcycle.
The cover-up work was not free.

That is really sweet to commemorate your date!
You guys have been together a while! Thats awesome! Whats some good advice you'd give to someone who's newly married like me or whats your secret to staying together that long? ?

We've been together for 22 years.
For about 20 of those years, we worked different times of the day and never saw each other....
That's the secret to staying with me that long!
