Sam's "Footographs"

I was passing through the campus of <a href="http://www.fitnyc.edu/">F.I.T.</a> last month when I spotted Sam's feet:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiF0gETkuC-c3rhRYl1wl0pigSmenYFKCu3y4Oda79ncon6SUBmQfsIHxTqsyIZo8tria6C0u8qFpV_CRvTe5ueSCLOlWEynV0-IdUdiBD5IpR_OqZE5b2crpD_CgF51MnYCBPusyciurc/s1600/Sams+feet.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="255" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiF0gETkuC-c3rhRYl1wl0pigSmenYFKCu3y4Oda79ncon6SUBmQfsIHxTqsyIZo8tria6C0u8qFpV_CRvTe5ueSCLOlWEynV0-IdUdiBD5IpR_OqZE5b2crpD_CgF51MnYCBPusyciurc/s400/Sams+feet.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />Her right foot bears the signatures of all four members of the band <a href="http://honorsocietyonline.com/">Honor Society</a>:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg25IjZLvqPq6g9QEvz1PrVLH8QBFPhPvkLWqKrstk40jD9eR3TXBdNGwRnNqZE784s-0z0oSe1DBwv9xQH6G3RijsI2uhC3erTc1w7FX17tCJYp2Ea4wMEEUlnp0VX3-aAA_S4L2URH50/s1600/Sams+autograph+foot.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg25IjZLvqPq6g9QEvz1PrVLH8QBFPhPvkLWqKrstk40jD9eR3TXBdNGwRnNqZE784s-0z0oSe1DBwv9xQH6G3RijsI2uhC3erTc1w7FX17tCJYp2Ea4wMEEUlnp0VX3-aAA_S4L2URH50/s400/Sams+autograph+foot.jpg" width="390" /></a></div><br />She met the band members (Michael Bruno, Jason Rosen, Andrew Lee, and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Noyes">Alexander Noyes</a>) at a promotional event at a phone store out on Long Island. After getting their autographs, she had the quartet of John Hancocks permanently inked at <a href="http://www.tormentedsoulstattoo.com/">Tormented Souls Tattoo & Body Piercing</a>, East Northport location.<br /><br />Her left foot bears this line:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfclXZ-ApsnlcW9_aWK482mPtVS-UhBa0Fm0qj0-dWy9_QwTjgJP4ZW5b5RsO6o5ueZy-AXqtbSUij_7t9Xo2n-RTIlYNdNtK16KlifFxtMLZ7BmniTYZ4h0iPME1gihv81T6Ef09mZBc/s1600/Sams+german+quote+foot.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="217" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfclXZ-ApsnlcW9_aWK482mPtVS-UhBa0Fm0qj0-dWy9_QwTjgJP4ZW5b5RsO6o5ueZy-AXqtbSUij_7t9Xo2n-RTIlYNdNtK16KlifFxtMLZ7BmniTYZ4h0iPME1gihv81T6Ef09mZBc/s400/Sams+german+quote+foot.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />The line is German, "Liebe macht erfiniderish," which Sam told me means "love will find a way." She says that this is both a nod to her German heritage, but also a reminder that, despite the fact that she may be occupied with other things, love will eventually find a way into her life. This was also inked at Tormented Souls, but in the Kings Park location.<br /><br />Thanks to Sam for sharing her foot tattoos with us here on Tattoosday!<br /><br /><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:WordDocument> <w:View>Normal</w:View> <w:Zoom>0</w:Zoom> <w:Compatibility> <w:BreakWrappedTables/> <w:SnapToGridInCell/> <w:WrapTextWithPunct/> <w:UseAsianBreakRules/> </w:Compatibility> <w:BrowserLevel>MicrosoftInternetExplorer4</w:BrowserLevel> </w:WordDocument> </xml><![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 10]> <style> /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman";}</style> <![endif]--> <br /><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: x-small;">This entry is ©2011 Tattoosday. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: x-small;">If you are reading this on another web site other than Tattoosday, without attribution, please note that it has been copied without the author's permission and is in violation of copyright laws.

Tammy's Earth Fairy

Tammy says that, within an hour of meeting her, Steve Gagliano of <a href="http://www.tormentedsoulstattoo.com/main.html">Tormented Souls</a> in Kings Park, New York, knew exactly what to do with the tattoo she wanted covered up. He began freehanding a design over the existing tattoo, and the end result made her very happy:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhX1VeqQCBJ1qFOyhu0ZZ7qCY7-QBEz5aOBW3Z01qTafqkw2xJ2TupjXXH-SQNT08c54Colsv9S3oPnwuZLgR4BwAuRjPO-bYQtDeDp96SFPkW_NgAvGpOvhR3Z5nGQXawmEP8AoNpB/s1600/Earth+Fairy+collage.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="347" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhX1VeqQCBJ1qFOyhu0ZZ7qCY7-QBEz5aOBW3Z01qTafqkw2xJ2TupjXXH-SQNT08c54Colsv9S3oPnwuZLgR4BwAuRjPO-bYQtDeDp96SFPkW_NgAvGpOvhR3Z5nGQXawmEP8AoNpB/s400/Earth+Fairy+collage.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />The artist utilized the tribal butterfly that already existed and expanded it into an earth fairy, with a dragon protector.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDgA1cl7KsZK-PfmR8ZedmKi4cY4d1-4kZePP8Am29ZLOXvVn6ORzJHwYd2gc40YbuerLhpU5QOAv8YXOWHZsHuXycUi9ri1K3ve8NsawP5HB_sOWoJ4Vh1u-kOoMFuwZF3qYdShpk/s1600/Earth+Fairy+C.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDgA1cl7KsZK-PfmR8ZedmKi4cY4d1-4kZePP8Am29ZLOXvVn6ORzJHwYd2gc40YbuerLhpU5QOAv8YXOWHZsHuXycUi9ri1K3ve8NsawP5HB_sOWoJ4Vh1u-kOoMFuwZF3qYdShpk/s640/Earth+Fairy+C.jpg" width="402" /></a></div><br />Thanks to Tammy for sharing this, one of her seven tattoos, here on Tattoosday!<br /><br />Be sure to click on the <a href="http://www.tormentedsoulstattoo.com/main.html">Tormented Souls link</a> to explore their site.
