FOUR LEGS

I met Devin of The Salesmen and Knife Party! Mobile Sharpening last night at the Shangri La, and today I already have his knuckles in my inbox! Thanks dude! Here is what Devin has to say about his knuckles:

It’s in my handwriting — it’s a reminder that people are animals too. Also, I recently wrote a song called “Four Legs” in honor of the charity Jail Guitar Doors. The song is about being free like an animal, and here is a link to the song (you may have to scroll down eventually as we post new things.)

Hope Dies

Ry sends us these knuckles:

These are my knuckles, saying “Hope Dies”. It’s not as pessimistic as you’d think. I believe hope does die, but we must fight to keep it alive. We must fight to keep our hope(s) and dreams alive in our lives, and that would explain the placement for you. As for the style: I didn’t want something ordinary. Knuckles are already an odd location for tattoos, but I wanted to push it further than that and have the words in cursive rather than the plain block lettering. I wanted them crossing fingers and going in the webbing in between — which hurt like hell.

PROMISES

 

Hey knuckle heads,my name is jesse and I’m from Waterbury, CT. This piece was
done by Angel Caban of Lucky Soul Tattoo in Ansonia, CT and the meaning is
pretty simple. Together it spells “promises” and when my hands aren’t
together it simply means “broken promises”.  My piece leans mostly towards
past relationships that I’ve been through and how a promise given,isn’t one
always kept. Thanks for checkin it out! www.luckysoultattoo.com

Just Sing

Amanada Z. sends us these knuckles:

The story behind my knuckle tattoo is that I have been singing since kindergarten and I still continue to do so, I am now a senior in college. “Just Sing” is sort of a motto of mine to get through life. Singing makes me at ease and relives most of my stresses so when i become utterly stressed out I just sing. Of course it doesn’t make my problems go away but it does make me feel a hell of a lot better. Singing is one of my greatest passions in life, and when I sing, that’s one of the best feelings in the world.

Pang Pang

Fredrik of PangPang Brewery sends us these beautiful knuckles:

PangPang is the name of my brewery in Stockholm. I made these to resemble the companys logo, after the first major delivery.
I´m not sure anymore, but I think that maybe I started the brewery just in order to get to do the tattoos.

COOKIE

Elizabeth sends use these follow ups to her gangster knuckles:

From the line in the pixies song “tame”….. “Cookie I think you’re tame.”
BUT sometimes I lie and say it’s an homage to magic johnson’s wife, Cookie, because he came home with AIDS and she didn’t leave his ass. Terrible joke I know.

BE HAPPY

Mrs. Mamma Ink (aka Dee) sends us these cheerful knuckles:

I’ve always wanted a knuckle tattoo, and i’m always saying to my hubby and kids “be happy” so it just came to me one day that’s what i should have on my knuckles, the colours are the big top colours of the circus marques, my fellow tattoo artist Joe Faller was over from Ireland guest spotting so it all came together.
