Let It Go & a redo by Jade at Asheville Tattoo Fest

Hi :) 

My name is Kristine Cook
I had this tattoo done by Jade from Ink Sanctuary from Islip NY. 
I had the words in mind and she came up with the design.. 
I love it and get so many compliments on it! 
I hope to see her there again this year :)

Jade also redid this tattoo for me that I've had for 20 years.. It needed to be brightened up and I wanted it to look a little happier.. Great job!

Laura Wabbit Tattoo at Asheville Tattoo Fest


I got this tattoo because I am an amputee and my husband calls me the wabbit. This tattoo reminds me to take care of myself because I sometimes would forget to do that. It was designed by Roger LaDouceur and tattooed by the Dark Sith. My name is Laura.

Deliverance Angel Tattoo by Adam Christopher France at ATF

John Bliek got this deliverance angel tattooed by Adam Christopher France. John was abused as a child and now helps children who are in trouble. It is a very meaningful tattoo. The kids love it too.

My name is Tatum P. the Artist is Big Gus. I was honored to have one of the finest do this beautiful portrait of Marilyn Monroe, hope to get more of his fine work done in the near future.

Lily Tattoo at the Asheville Tattoo Fest 2012


Hi, I'm Taylor Shockley! Enjoyed the fest last year but didn't really plan on coming home with any art. I saw Stelios from Eternal Tattoos and really loved his work, so I decided last minute to get this cute little thing! It's a small tiger lily for my daughter, Lily. Sweet reminder of my beautiful girl and a wonderful weekend.
