Hoot-chie Coochie Man
The above tattoo is on a lady called Michelle, and was brought to my attention by Bill Cohen, who runs the Tattoosday blog, and describes it thus: "The concept behind Tattoosday is the majority of ink being spotted randomly in the streets of New York." There's some really interesting stuff on there, I recommend you check it out. The direct link to the owl post is here.

These were bad enough to bring my posting back from the dead
So as I'm sure you can tell, I haven't been posting here a lot lately. I've been busy at work, and haven't really come across many new tattoos that are worth mentioning. However, I got an email a few days ago that seriously shook me up. Check out these terrible tattoos, all by the same artist working out of a "pro" shop.
Was the kanji there already, and the rest of the tattoo worked around it? Or was it all designed in one piece? Why is the kanji overlapping with the star? What is that weird black V at the top? It's all a total mystery, and it's all TERRIBLE.
This just makes me think of a pile of pubes, I'm sorry.
...... I don't even know what to say about this. It's not as terrible as the others but it just seems so... sad.

Wow, after being featured on one of my favourite internet blogs, Neatorama, we had a slew of reader submissions! Woot!
The first comes from Nicole, who says "dewey the owl of the night, done by Bruce at Evolution tattoos in Orlando Florida. dewey is my protector! (well, besides my husband!)"
Olive sent this one in, by lynn at Lucky Devil Tattoo in Seattle.
Yvonne sent in the above pic, of her owl that "I got done for my birthday in October... he's small but cute, and named Chester. LOL." Aw!
Sahra from Melbourne, Aus, sent in the above.
And finally a tattooist submission, from Ran Maclurkin.
