Session One

The first session took place on June 28th, 2003 at 11:30.  The session began with Jeff and I making a few last minute changes.  The dragon's general size would be bigger, starting just past my wrist and going all the way up my shoulder.  Jeff put a stencil of the initial sketch on my arm then, and freehanded the rest on my arm. 

When the entire outline is on my arm, Jeff says, "You know, this would look good in colour".  It's apparent that he's right, so we settle on putting colour into the whole piece.  Firstly though, the outline and the shading need to go on.  So the work begins.

It was a long first session, but things stayed lively throughout.  I had my brother Phillip for company, and staff from Adrenaline would take turns admiring Jeff's work in progress.  After 7 hours of actual tattooing, I have everything drawn in, and a bit of colour to boot.  My flesh on my arm feels ravaged and swollen, but it's a good pain...
