Born in the Year of the Dragon

I've seen Nigel a few times before on a fag break, and blipped previously here. I approached him for a portrait today and inevitably got talking about the tattoo. He said that he got a small one done on his left arm and when he realised that it didn't hurt as much as he expected he just went for broke on his right arm. It depicts a dragon, the Chinese symbol for the year of his birth. I'm not a great fan of selective colour but I think this is an instance where it can be justified. And perhaps it's time to start experimenting a little more.

I've now got my head fully back into work mode and I'm being far more productive than before I went away - which is just as well as loads of stuff has kicked off this week. I'm sure glad I was able to grab that window of opportunity while I could. Posting very late after a very long day but at least I have quite a bit to show for my effort. Sorry there's been no time again to be social here - not helped by the site having almost ground to a halt at the moment.
