This is my first tattoo, of a grape vine coming from the middle of my spine and up to the top of my left shoulder. The amazing Kevin Troxel helped me fully realize the potential for this idea, and I don't think I would like it half as much were it not for his artistic influence. I researched for almost 6 months before finally selecting vine work as the tattoo I wanted. I particularly like it because vines represent a tanacious side of nature, and the yet opening buds at the top stand for potential.
