Chrysanthemum Cover-Up

So the mission is to cover this up completely...


She was fairly open to ideas, but kept bringing up chrysanthemums as something she was super into, so that's where we headed...



I'm not gonna lie, this was pretty difficult.  Had to draw it on and as soon as the body temperature started rising, that pen was wiping off like nobody's business.  Had to try and work very loose and kind of go with the flow.  The image underneath is also pretty dark and at times it was hard to see what was going on.  Chrysanthemums have a lot of lines and the are always over and underlapping themselves, so it can get confusing very quick if you're not reall aware and focused.
All that complaining aside, I feel super good about the results.  She really didn't want to have to get a gigantic tattoo to cover the vine, and I feel that we're keeping it a pretty managable size considering the difficulties asscoiciated with cover ups...
Going to be outling the other half later today.  Wish me luck...
