Tattoosday Goes to Hawaii: A Floral Sneak Peak @ O'Hare, Courtesy of Jennifer

When I first booked my trip to Honolulu and saw I had a brief layover in Chicago, I challenged myself to find at least one cool tattoo at the <a href="http://www.ohare.com/">airport</a>.<br /><br />Lucky for me, I found Jennifer from Portland, Maine, sporting this lovely <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hibiscus">hibiscus</a> foot tattoo:<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9XDI0W7RzMkDrGBPAd5ebM4YtjOdeZxyr4uV1ArrEq6avnrbq0zm8zW76UyXQhRiJRiOMwVFhwPNjzYy3UcaSpuOSIoNPL8FUuZDZhbv0-iwsAYXKiznZgJzAj4J2qXG-QN8Oi3Ia/s1600/Hibiscus+Foot.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5468112947019529954" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9XDI0W7RzMkDrGBPAd5ebM4YtjOdeZxyr4uV1ArrEq6avnrbq0zm8zW76UyXQhRiJRiOMwVFhwPNjzYy3UcaSpuOSIoNPL8FUuZDZhbv0-iwsAYXKiznZgJzAj4J2qXG-QN8Oi3Ia/s400/Hibiscus+Foot.jpg" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 265px; height: 400px;" /></a><br />The hibiscus being the state flower of Hawai'i, I saw this as a good omen.<br /><br />Jennifer explained that she based the design for this tattoo on a photo in a magazine.<br /><br />Why the foot? She had one tattoo on her back and "wanted one she could see".<br /><br />This floral piece was inked in about two and a half hours at <a href="http://www.myspace.com/pinsandneedlesportland">Pins and Needles Tattoo</a> at home in Portland. Work from Pins and Needles has appeared previously on Tattoosday <a href="http://tattoosday.blogspot.com/2009/08/ben-commemorates-cat-and-tree.html">here</a>.<br /><br />Thanks to Jennifer for humoring this traveling inkspotter and sharing her hibiscus with us here on Tattoosday!
