For piece #17, I decided that I wanted yet another straight edge tattoo. This time, I went with another symbol of straight edge, that being 'XXX'. For those that don't know, the reason 'XXX' is a symbol of straight edge is that each X represents a different part of the lifestyle-one for a clean mind, one for a clean body, and one for a clean soul. We ended up only going with an outline-style tattoo, but I may end up filling it in with some color at some point. I will have to ask my current artist, Chase Martines (Brave New World Tattoo; Denver, CO) what he thinks about doing that. Tattoo by Shaun Reed Tattoos in Olympia, WA.
