INKEDblog takes you beneath the skin of today's tattoo culture. Our mission is to celebrate tattooing as a modern art form which incorporates art, fashion, style, and pop culture. While paying homage and respect to the past, we look to present a contemporary take on the present and future of skin art.

Every BODY Has a Story: Dreams
"I got this tattoo about two years ago when my youngest son was one and my older son was five. My husband and I are from the East Coast, and we were surprised by the styles on the West Coast – Everyone has a tattoo!
We had talked about the idea of getting a tattoo ourselves a few times, but nothing serious. Then for Christmas, under the tree, my husband gave me a gift certificate for a tattoo. I actually didn’t go in to get it though, until the following March…
My husband ended up getting a tattoo at the same time. He’s a novelist, and it’s his dream to work at writing fulltime. He got a tattoo that says “Once upon a time” around his ankle. I got the paint palette because my dream is to be a full time painter. My husband wrote a children’s book that I would love to illustrate some day.
I am about five months now pregnant with our third now, and it is sweet to wear our dreams on our skin."
