Faery Elsie from my pirate Brother


I know it's hard to see. this, however, is my next tattoo. My Wonderful Brother, Chris, drew it for me for my 24th birthday. Best present that i got. it is pasted in my journal, so i figured that putting it into my online journal would not only be fitting, but also a way to show it off to the world.
It is a drawing of a faery called Elsie. When i got it in the mail i cried. it made me feel loved and understood and above all tugged on the cord that attaches my heart to that of my brother. While he may be less excited about my gushy emotional words, i'm sure he feels it too. He drew me this picture because he knew i would love it. on so many levels.
it's a me picture.
drawn by him.
and that means everything.
I am so glad to have a brother who is such a unique and unmatchable spirit. I wouldn't have it any other way. If he didn't dislike his full name i would probably name a future son after him. I may still do it and just name my son sazzmo. although he's probably saving that for his son. i guess i won't steal it.

Too bad I had to steal a number of design elements together to get cobble together the shame/pose of the faery... I'm not good at that part - but it makes this work legally not mine...
I'm very pleased with how the drawing turned out, as well as the happiness it brought...
The wings still bug me, the dragonfly image I was looking at... I just couldnt replicate the delicate patterns on the wings...
But it turned out good... Despite Steph's objections...
