Jaimie's Emersonian Ink


 "Nothing can bring you peace but yourself" are the words inked across Jaimie's back. I spotted her down the street from my home in Bay Ridge.

I asked Jaimie to explain why she got these words from poet Ralph Waldo Emerson's essay "Self-Reliance" on her back:
"This has been my favorite quote for years," she told me. "I studied American literature in college, so I studied a lot of Emerson." She also noted that the quote is "very true".

She had this tattooed in Manhattan on St. Mark's.

Thanks to Jaimie for sharing this great tattoo with us here on Tattoosday!

A Cure for Friday

It may be the first of July, but it's the end of the work week, and I thought, "What better way to end the week than with this tattoo?"


This belongs to Christina, who loves The Cure, whose song "Friday I'm in Love" inspired this tattoo.

Christina is French, and she credits her friend, Tomas Lebrun, with tattooing this for her in Paris.

For a little perspective, and appreciation, here's the Cure performing the song in New York in 2008:

When getting a lower back tattoo prepare to lay on your stomach for at least 1 hour. It is also required that you prepare a clean hairless surface for your tattoo artist to work with.
