It took about 16-17 hours total, with sessions lasting anywhere from 30 min to 2 hours. And yes... it hurt :p

That is GORGEOUS!

I still have dreams of getting a tatoo, but i can't decide on a design..

[Bad JuJu]

That's some beautiful work! Did you design it?

[Kitsune06]

Baby it! Baby it! Lotsa sunscreen! Massage! Lovin'!

It's gorgeous! :D

[Wahine]

It is an amazing piece of art. Enjoy it!!

Thanks, everyone! I just came up with the idea of a phoenix because it's prettymuch representative of my entire life. The tattoo artist I go to drew it for me.

I baby it a lot! It gets cocoa butter while it heals and sunscreen any time I'm in the sun (even with a jersey on, when I ride I'll still SPF 60 the parts of it that aren't covered by a sports bra).

so pretty....

[froglegs]

Wow!!! That is awesome.

That is beautiful. You chose a great design and the artist did a fantastic job.

I remember a tattoo artist I spoke with ages ago when I got mine, commented on random flash art tattoos. She said "look at all that on that persons body and there isn't one piece of art". Yours is art :D

I'm glad you are protecting it too. It is far too beautiful to let fade!

[crazycanuck]

That's one cool tattoo!

I'd love to get one but am chicken..

Holy Cow! That's one ambitious tattoo! It's beautiful. And I love the phoenix symbolism.

Hooray for new ink! That's a lovely piece.

I have a chest piece I get compliments on a lot (12+ hours of work) and I'm in the process of planning the rest of my back. You have me inspired to get into the shop for more work.

Beautiful! Thank you for sharing.
