Another Bon-Tat? 6/8/10

bontat

Scott Tice’s shoulder, fully adorned. Nice flowers.

Are we heading in the wrong direction?
I’m not sure about these bon-tats anymore, though the flowers on Scott’s are very good. Are we heading in the wrong direction with these? Or should be continue posting them? Any thoughts?

Disclaimer
I don’t have any tattoos, and if I did, it probably wouldn’t be a bonsai (maybe a Mahakala). Most people in my generation don’t have tattoos, and when they do, it’s usually just one, and often that one is hidden. Still, I am not opposed to the culture of prolific tattoos that mark these times. I don’t always like them, but I’m a big fan of freedom to do what you will with your body and do appreciate the artistry that some tattoos exhibit.

You be the judge and maybe win something
Off topic: judging of our Bonsai Photo Art Contest is still open. Do it! It won’t take long, it’s enjoyable, and you just might win a gift certificate to Stone Lantern.
