Tattoo Resources

Hello! I’m Jan Smith and I’m a tattoo enthusiast. I love the culture, the history, the depth and breadth of the different tattoo design styles. I love (most) of the people that I encounter due to (my) tattoos.

This is the growing tattoo gallery started December 2006, of San Diego Bloggers with Tattoos! If you have a tattoo that is “family-friendly” please email it to us at blogs [at] sandiegobloggers.com. We would love to share it with the world!

By the end of January we will improve the layout here to accommodate the growing number of tattoo pictures and tattoo designs we receive.

  • "I love these snakes and asked Aaron to create a piece of art for me. I gave him several pictures to work with and we did the ink in one sitting. This is my first ink in over 30 years and that one will be covered up when I figure out what I'd like to do with it. The snake is on my left leg, I hope you enjoy the work! Wish my pic was better!"
