[imsuchawildflower]

strong kid.
prison tats. :(
innocent as a baby sleeping here.

I was reading back and came across these pics.
They dont look like prison tats to me...
There has been a huge *comeback* of traditional
tattoos (ie WWII and the graywash/black tatts)
Especially in the hispanic/latino cultures. The style
itself (black and greywash) has some roots in the
prison world, but has become fairly mainstream now.
The Old English writing has made its way from gang
tats to mainstream and many many people have them
from all walks of life (the OE font).
I know this because my son in law is a tat artist and
has a career in Southern California and New Mexico.
(lots and lots of Hispanic and Mexican and Latinos population)
I asked his opinion on them and thats what he told me...
confirming what I already knew from tattoo documentaries
Ive watched and follow up searches on the internet.
