My fascination with tattoos

My fascination with tattoos started when I was in the eight standard. There was a friend of mine, lets call him Shag, who had made a tattoo himself with a needle and fabric color. So, my first tattoo was made on the last bench of my classroom. My first tattoo was the initials S and k. S was for my name and K was for Kurt Cobain, the vocalist of the band Nirvana.

After that I was in a frenzy. I used to make tattoos by myself all the time. I have 3 initials on my hand. one on my arm, one on my leg, and 2 on my shoulders.

The first professional tattoo that I made was in the year 2009. There is this very famous tattoo artist in Thamel. Whenever someone asks about tattoo artist in Nepal, his name comes up at the first. I finally decided to make a mermaid and I had to take appointment with him and had to wait for almost 3 months. Finally I got to make my first tattoo made by a professional artist on 10th December 2009.

After that I have made many new tattoos. The recent one that I made was of Medusa, which I made on 20th February, 2012. I feel that once a person makes a tattoo, then he or she gets addicted to it. I have become addicted to it as well. I want to make another one..lets see..what happens.
