I’ve been through a lot of crap the past couple of years. “God is Love” is a reminder that despite my flaws, God’s love is unconditional. I know it doesn’t necessarily blend in with the other tats on your site…but I figured I’d submit the pic anyway. God Bless.
Actually Rob, you fingers fit right in here. Knuckle tattoos always seem to be about the individual’s belief in something. Thanks for sending them in.
These beauties come on the hands of Kristy T, and here is her story:
My Great grandfather was in the Navy and later a barge Cpt. on the Ohio river. I was given my middle name of Lee after him. He was heavily tattooed and had Love and hate on his knuckles so I guess what I am getting at is that it was in memory of my Great grandfather.
Tasha G. sent in these knuckle tattoos. This is what she had to say about them:
twas love…i picked that because it was
motivating…to do things for love and to NOT do
things for love…
These beauties belong to Cheryl a tattooist at Custom Tattoos from the Soul here in Austin, TX. She went through a bad break up and was originally going to get FUCK LOVE but decided at the last that she still loved the cock. The artist apparently took a lot of convincing to do this tattoo. He is currently her boyfriend.
Jon from Phoenix, AZ writes:
I got my knuckles done by Sam at Artistic Skin Studios in Mesa. I got TRUE LOVE on my knuckles because I was moving to Chicago to try and apprentice to be an artist out there. All of my best friends live in AZ, so I wouldn’t really be able to see them a lot when I left. My best friend Cassie bought me my knuckles as a going away present. I really do love her, she has always been there for me. So everytime I look at my knuckles, no matter where life takes me, I think about her and all of my friends. Thats my story and Im stickin to it………..
Today’s knuckles come all the way from Santa Clara, CA, courtesy of Nicole S. When I asked her why she picked FUCK LOVE this is what she told me:
I picked FUCK LOVE because of everything I have loved that fucked me over in return. Plus I just had a really bad breakup and was over the pain that love seems to bring me.
