This was done by Gerry Harrison @ The Joint in Newport Beach. He drew the entire tattoo freehand & went to work!
I went to Gerry with an idea of a "growing" tattoo that I could add to over the years. The 4 cherry blossoms (4th one is on top of my shoulder) are for myself, sister & our maternal grandparents...they took us to DC when we were young & i fell in love with the cherry blossoms there! The 2 nautical stars are for our paternal Grandparents...My grandfather retired from the Navy as a 2 star Admiral.
