    Nope. I had quite a bit of time with him, but it few and far between, he was living in Texas while I was living in Oregon or Washington (Thanks "Mom").

    How about your name written in calligraphy with a tattoo of a fountain pen at the end, looking as if it was just written with that pen. You said he was a tattoo artist, so the pen would represent him, and your name being written by that pen would be almost like your dad gave you the tattoo.

    You could incorporate the flower as well.

    Yeah, but I don't want my name on me... I always make fun of people with their own name or intials on them..

    Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't want another language tattooed on me unless it's one that I speak... It would mean nothing to me... far too cliché...

    Not to put down your idea...

    Have a good night!

    Do you like faeries? Or wings?

    http://tattoo.about.com/library/graphics/heartwings.jpg --This one is wings with a heart in the middle.. you could do something similar and put your fathers intials in the middle... or underneath.
    http://z.hubpages.com/u/88240_f520.jpg Faerie... with word next to it.. If you like that kind thing.

    http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...iry_Tattoo.jpg You could make something like this with the cherish flower... and your dads name under it or something..


    Do you like color tatts? Or black and white..
    Im a black and white kind of person.. but butterflies are pretty.

    Any certain colors?

    Thanks for helping me look, Kissme10der! BTW, I love your screen name!

    If you have any other questions, let me know...

    I want something glowy and ethereal... Nothing religious... no crosses or wings.

    Can you send a link with something you kind of like? It might help with to know what your style is..
    Lol, I don't know why but I picture your taste as swirls and vibrant sensoul colors.. mysticalish... maybe it's the age thing. I am a year younger..

    I really like that one without the flames... I actually have that one saved in my "tattoo folder" on my desktop for my sister's and my tattoo...


    But something else for my Dad's...

    Hmmm, are you looking for something that represents him? Or Just his name? In your head, what reminds you of him? Like you see something and it just makes you think of him?

    Something that represents him. His name. I don't know. Long hair, tattoos, harley... that reminds me of him, but none of those are things that I would want tattooed on me...

    Hmmmm,

    A tattooing needle thingy.. with a cord spelling out his name?

    http://www.istockphoto.com/file_thum...ith_swirls.jpg --this is cute.. It something I would get.. Initials in the heart.. maybe get rid of the little hearts.. and making the swirls different colors and symmetrical.. . No red.. pinks, purples, blues..

    What colors do you like?

    You want something more girly then what reminds you of your father?

    Is there a childhood book he used to read you?

    Like my fav is that book about the fish and his sparkle scales..

    Or a movie you used to watch with him?

    Something you would do together? Swim? Sports? Sing?

    For me, I'd have to do a fish for my dad.. he loves fishing.

    Hmmmm... You're a toughy! Lol

    I'm sorry to hear that. Its hard to lose someone.. harder to watch them slowly die.

    Its been a rough 2 years for me... Lost my Grandma jan 2007 (dads mom), lost my grandfather (moms dad) June2007, and just lost my uncle from 3 different kinds of cancer in April. Not to mention my 2 dogs last summer.. one was old and needed to be put down... the other the dog tag got stuck between the deck boards.. he freaked out and twisted himself till he choked.


    Anyway..

    Have you thought of a beautiful eye.. and in the pupil his initials.. like you are remembering him? With some swirls around it?

    http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2062/...956532dd86.jpg --eye..

    http://z.about.com/d/tattoo/1/0/w/p/taesa081504c.jpg -- I don't really like that example.. but something more to your liking.. Different swirls.. those are too thick.

    I actually had a design of an eye, but couldn't think of where to put it... I thought my back would be kind of inappropriate for sexual reasons, if you catch my drift... but if you can think of something else...
