I
was a big fan of the TV
show Miami Ink and especially of the resident female artist Kat
Von D. I always thought if I was ever going to trust
someone to give me a portrait Marilyn tattoo it would be Kat. When
Kat left the show and moved back to LA, I attempted to contact her to
see if I could schedule an appointment with her. I was going to be
in LA in August 2007 for the Marilyn Memorial on the 45th anniversary of
her death. That is when I found out she was going to have
her own show called LA
INK and they were currently accepting casting applications. I
applied but never heard back. A week before my trip I was contacted by
a Producer because they were interested in
having me on the show. However it didn't happen something about
not being able to get clearance to use
Marilyn's image. I was disappointed but I decided to stop by and
see Kat's shop anyway. Unfortunately, none of the artists featured
on the show were
there but I did get some photos taken inside the shop. 
To commemorate the 40th anniversary of Marilyn's death I went ahead and got myself a Marilyn Monroe tattoo. Here are a couple of photos. I have a unicorn tattoo that I got about 8 years ago which is twice the size of the new Marilyn tatt but boy I sure don't remember it hurting as much as this one did. Must be the location.
be sure to include TATTOO in the subject line
