Lindsay's Mermaid Kicks off Summer

Well, it's officially summer and we are expecting a scorcher here today in New York City.<br /><br />I wanted to share a tattoo that would fit the theme, but I've been looking ahead to this Saturday's <a href="http://www.coneyisland.com/mermaid.shtml">Mermaid Parade</a> in <a href="http://www.coneyisland.com/index.shtml">Coney Island</a>.<br /><br />A couple weeks ago I rode my bike out to the boardwalk and was rewarded with a lot of sharing tattooed people. So, with the parade on the horizon and summer in the air, let's meet Lindsay and one of her tattoos:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibUlb16uGwdtOPbMAhz__57oN5zcJAAJFluMQDWLI9eVVHWgeEzg1mWvZZqjKJlMoabcfbByZkCiVwZu1BMlCQOjEgco-YN05h9t0jjxyarzKHECXMwCTYiMvGRVYArsRLiMpNNzlRi2g/s0-d/IMG_0360.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibUlb16uGwdtOPbMAhz__57oN5zcJAAJFluMQDWLI9eVVHWgeEzg1mWvZZqjKJlMoabcfbByZkCiVwZu1BMlCQOjEgco-YN05h9t0jjxyarzKHECXMwCTYiMvGRVYArsRLiMpNNzlRi2g/s0-d/IMG_0360.JPG" width="430" /></a></div><br />Lindsay explained that she went to <a href="http://blackcattattoos.net/home.html">Black Cat Tattoos</a> in Pittsburgh and consulted with the artist, <a href="http://blackcattattoos.net/section/67483_Tattoos_By_Jason.html">Jason Lambert</a>:<br /><blockquote class="tr_bq">"I went to him and  ... told him my idea ... I wanted to go with the siren/mermaid theme, with like drunken sailors, luring them out to sea, and he drew it up and it went from there ... so this is original artwork."</blockquote><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixlj_M4HcTqWe2iPLCDqo88SVPqK5Hosaos6RFtSAqQURa02iJ7nLlarjKiP9LzBQYofAOQhGN2M6fuxscfSG6IEGOCk2_3oew5EKfAwUSKdQihsa6EsB130NnEsGWThZxCvE3350Okh4/s0-d/photo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixlj_M4HcTqWe2iPLCDqo88SVPqK5Hosaos6RFtSAqQURa02iJ7nLlarjKiP9LzBQYofAOQhGN2M6fuxscfSG6IEGOCk2_3oew5EKfAwUSKdQihsa6EsB130NnEsGWThZxCvE3350Okh4/s0-d/photo.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />Thanks to Lindsay for sharing this wonderful work with us here on Tattoosday!<br /><br /><b id="internal-source-marker_0.5551482797600329" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This entry is ©2012 Tattoosday.</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you are reading this on another web site other than Tattoosday, without attribution, please note that it has been copied without the author's permission and is in violation of copyright laws.
