Connect-the-Dots Tattoo

By Alex in Pictures, Tattoo, Etc. on Nov 15, 2007 at 5:12 pm


Colleen Venable is obsessed with giraffes (it all started when she lost a giraffe toy as a child, which sets off a 3 year hunt for that particular stuffed animal. Long story short 1,712 giraffes later, she found it!).

As part of her art project The Stalking and Murdering of a Childhood Giraffe Project, Colleen decided to get an "extremely visible invisible tattoo": a connect-the-dot tattoo of the giraffe toy. (She traced the giraffe with a pen for us all to see)

    I was wondering why that was so familiar, then I realized she was on my LJ friends list.

    It's very creative, but I'm sorry, it looks like a bunch of ants crawling up her leg.

    I love that other people have giraffe tattoos! Sometimes I think that I am the only one. I like the idea of a connect the dot giraffe tattoo, maybe someday I will get one (not the same as hers, I think that tattoos should be unique!)
