I mentioned in the post that it was Vicki's tattoo below her neck which first grabbed my attention, but that Vicki offered up her newer piece for us here at Tattoosday.<br /><br />Vicki has recently sent me a photo of the original tattoo I saw on her. It's a nice, simple shamrock and hearts.<br /><br />This, like the other piece, was inked at <a href="http://www.myspace.com/truebluetattoonyc">True Blue Tattoo</a> in Queens. <a href="http://www.alexmcwatt.com/">Alex McWatt</a> is the artist.<br /><br />Vicki writes: "I got the design for a few reasons. First of all, I am Irish and I wanted to get something to celebrate my heritage without getting a flag tattoo. Second, my boyfriend, the love of my life, is 100% Irish, and I wanted to get a tattoo to symbolism me and him - that is what the two hearts are for. I chose to get it on the back of my neck so it would be out there for the world to see."<br /><br />Thanks again to Vicki for sharing her ink here with us on Tattoosday!
