Many say it looks like a woodblock print and that is not untrue. I drew the waves and originally filled them with lots of lines, but decided that even ones gave it a clean, orderly look. The man who tattooed it on me said it was "geometric, but whimsical" which I think sounds great. I found myself writing about water this summer all the time, I think it's a very apt metaphor for life. Now it's on my arm.
