i'm only hooked in the sense that i know what i want, i know what's going to be required in terms of time and money, and i'm willing to go through with it. i do have a final goal in mind, and it will be many years before that's done, so for me, it's just a slow process. i don't really do small pieces anymore... i'm into large-scale artwork. i have one arm done, i just started on my other arm, and from there I'll move onto my chest, back, and hopefully neck/throat. my ideas are always pretty complicated, and since I want my body art to work as a unit, i gotta practice forethought and patience; nothing goes on me until i'm sure it's ready to. my artist is a flippin' genius too, so I only really want him touching me hopefully he'll live to be 100
