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.

EveryBODY has a story: Circle of Love
I am a ordained minister and last year in San Francisco had the honor of performing the commitment ceremony for my heart sister and her partner.
The three of us got matching tattoos to commemorate the occasion.
The circular coil symbolizes the infinite nature of love, but you'll notice that the circles are not perfectly round. That's because love is never perfect. Even the best relationship has its its rough spots. These "imperfections" don't make love--or the relationship-- any less special or any less precious. We wanted the tattoo to symbolize that.
My heart sister and her partner got their tattoos underneath their wrists, while I got mine on the top of my wrist, to symbolize that while there are differences in our relationships from one another, we are all family."
