There has to be a way for me to tag pieces like this without using something tacky, like “tatts on tatts”. If you guys have suggestions, I’d love to hear them in the comments.
Additionally, does anyone know when traditional tattoos with tattoos started popping up?

Complex’s article “10 Female Tattooers We Have A Crush On” has received mixed responses, depending on who you ask. Included in their list was Virginia Elwood–understandably, since she is not only an amazing tattooer but very pretty. In response, she’s posted a list of her own: the 14 women Virgina Elwood has tattoo crushes on. Not just because they’re beautiful, but because they’re talented. Click the link to get the down low on some of Virginia’s faves – including Stephanie Tamez, Dawn Cooke, and Katie Sellergren.

On the six-month anniversary of the devastating tsunami that swept over northern Japan, the finest tattooers in New York have come together to create a limited edition spiral bound collection of tattoo flash sheets, aptly named Flash For Japan.
The book features 28 of New York’s most respected tattoo artists, and only 100 copies are available. Copies run $100 — but all proceeds are being donated to assist the victims of the tsunami. You can purchase the book exclusively from Shirts & Destroy (online or in their Brooklyn storefront). All production costs for the book were donated by Timothy Hoyer and Alpha Repro Graphics.
Artists involved in this project include: Eddy Deutsche, Tom Yak, Regino Gonzalez, Seth Wood, Bert Krak, Steve Boltz, Eli Quinters, Daniel Santoro, Sarah Schor, Stephanie Tamez, Virginia Elwood, Timothy Hoyer, Kevin Leblanc, Bart Bingham, Erik Desmond, Chris O’donnell, Thomas Hooper, Zac Scheinbaum, Horizakura, Troy Denning, Daniel Albrigo, Damien, Rodriguez, Kiku, Yoni Zilber, Anderson Luna.
From Brooklyn to San Francisco or was it the other way around?
