Laura (artist at The Polynesian Tattoo Factory, Hawaii): I got the membership and checked out the new tattoo dictionary on your website. Quite impressive! That's a good resource, especially for people who are not very familiar with Polynesian style tattoos. It looks like you did a lot of in-depth research.
I am flattered to see that you used some of my tattoo photos as examples. When you get a chance, can you please also add me to you
tattoo artist directory? I would greatly appreciate it. Mahalo.
