I finally decided on my second tattoo!
Saraswati: the goddess of knowledge and arts. i used to worship her as a child and am still attached to her.

1. awesome! congrats
I am currently considering my second (and maybe third) as i am trying to decide what I want. I have it narrowed down, but hate to rush into even buying a pair of shoes much less a permanent mark.

4. Awesome! Where are you thinking of putting it?
I'm partial to Ganesha or Nataraj. But Ganesha wouldn't make a good tattoo, and Nataraj would be kind of large. :)

8. I think I agree with LIsa on this one.
That would look awesome on your lower back. :)

13.  i forget about the tats on my back because i can't see
them. I like the design ,btw. it would make a good BIG tattoo, though you could shrink it down, too.

20. But now that I see the tatoo I am torn.
it's basic shape does lend itself more to an arm than a lower back.

I'm sure she'll make a good choice either way.

11. why would Ganesha not be a good tatto?
I think Daughter #1 is considering Ganesha as an element of her "back piece". Just wonderin' :hi:

12. As part of a larger piece Ganesha would be fantastic
but as a stand-alone piece, you would need to have a damned good artist to make a simple Ganesha look good.

For a small tattoo especially, I think it would be too round and crowded an image.

14. beautiful
I've always liked tattoos that have a personal/cultural/historical meaning to them. If you're going to wear it for the rest of your life, it should at least mean something.

19. She's beautiful
I was looking for a decent ganesha tatto. I think I've found one, though I'd want it to be a bit smaller.



I think I like this one too, but I would want it to be pretty small, because it is so bold.
