He carefully sketched the outline before transferring it onto the waiting canvas.
The picture would be black and white, so he would have to pay attention to detail.
Some didn't consider it art, but his work was very intricate.
Everything was prepared.
She jumped......
as the needle in the tattoo machine first pricked her skin.
Friday 55 Flash Fiction is brought to you by G-man (Mr Knowitall). The idea is you write a story in exactly 55 words. If you want to take part pop over and let G-man know when you've posted your 55.

You have such a great gift of telling a story in just 55 words.
I saw a guy with a whole mural on his back - it's most certainly art in my opinion. ;-)
Nice 55! :)
Ouch!...and I know that first prick of the skin, too!
I've got one...but never again!#
I'm such a baby!
GRRRREAT Flash 55, ma'dear!
As usual!!!
Have a great weekend.

Good short story. I can see why people get hooked on tattoos after I got mine.

I liked the ending to this. Very enjoyable.
We dragons like surprise endings. Hard to do that with Raven's words.
Great 55
We have posted.
Why thank you Jeff :)
I think so too Moms Journal :)
Me too Ron - I have one on my back. I took some painkillers before I went to have mine done!
Aw thanks Annelisa, great to see you back m'deario. x
I don't think I'd have another one Nessa, though I do like the one I've got. :)
There are some places a woman should never have a tattoo in my opinion and boobs is one of them Bee!
Thankyou Anthonynorth I'm pleased you liked it. :)
Glad you enjoyed the surprise ending Fandango :)
I never felt strongly enough about anything, to make me get a tattoo..
Cute! Very nicely done!
Oh I have many tatt's. It is indeed art.
Excellent 55 Ake!

Such words as "talent will out" comes to mind, but then I've told you and told you how talented you are! You know, Mac has a pair of bluebirds tattoed on his chest...our Granddaughter always asks why he didn't have a nest tattoed for them? His answer is always, "because by then I had sobered up."
Funny man, lol!

A tattoo is a big commitment - you have to really want one or maybe get very drunk Buff! ;)
Thankyou Kay :)
I had a feeling you would have Tatts G-man :)
Go for it Daryl if you really want one. :)
Oh thankyou Thom, how kind you are. x
I have an orchid tattoo Lou. I saw Joe's 55 - great minds think alike eh? :)
Good one! Must be a cosmic connection of some sort or another. Happy Friday!
I love the analogy of skin being a canvas!
Great 55ve Akelamalu!
LOL Definitely Joe!
Thanks Mona x
Another great 55...
I have a couple of little tats, my two older lads have loads though.... well not loads of little ones but half and full sleeves and Tom has a huge on on his back....
I LOVE my little tats
Lets hold buff down and get a little lawnmowing stickman tattoed just above his short and curlies LOL

hehe i love it. i had a 55 about a tattoo once, didn't i? lol :) great job, ake.
Not just because I have several tattoos I liked the story :)

Great #55 as always..
Have a great weekend dear.

Aw thanks Bindi, you too hon. x
Oh, but what happens next?!!!
