Michelle on TattoosOffice Angel Turned Street Devil!Michelle was born and raised a New Jersey girl and has been in New Jersey all her life. According to her she has no plans on leaving anytime soon. She has been working in the title insurance business for over three years and also has a wonderful son who will be turning three in March.He is my life and I dont know what I would do without him. So Michelle what are you into? I listen to all types of music. I am very open minded when it comes to music. If I hear something I like I dont care what kind it is or who it is by. I mostly listen to Hardcore and Rock. Some of my favorite bands are Ill Nino, 40 Below Summer, From Autumn to Ashes, Unearth, Dry Kill Logic. I also LOVE 80's music, I am a true 80's girl at heart. I LOVE hair metal such as Cinderella, Poison, Slaughter, Warrant. When did you get your first tattoo and what inspired you to get it done? My first tattoo was done on my 18th Birthday. It is the one that means the most to me. It was done by Mike French at Eternal Images in Lanoka Harbor, NJ. It is a cross in loving memory of my Uncle Chris who died 9 years ago when he was 23. Describe your tattoos and what they mean to you? I have kinda a good/evil and love/hate theme going on. On my right arm I have a tattoo for my son, which is an angel holding a baby and it has my son's name in the banner. Of course this means a lot because it's for my son. It is currently being turned into a half sleeve, I have a tattoo on the inside of my arm of a flower with a hand coming out of it and the hand is holding a sacred heart with a keyhole in it.
Like I said I am working on completing it and putting filler to make it a complete half sleeve. This is being done by one of my best friends Lara Slater at Adrenaline in Brick, NJ. Lara also did the Japenese symbol for love with blue flames around it on my right wrist. I will eventually have the Japenese symbol for hate on my left wrist in red flames. My left half sleeve is also being complete. It is almost done I have about two sittings left. It is in the New School/Bio-Mechanical style and being done by Dan Binai at Eternal Images in Ship Bottom, NJ.
I really love bio-mechanical tattoos but didn't want to get old school because most of my tattoos are very colorful and I felt that getting black and grey on my arm would not fit right. So Dan designed me this amazing piece that is very colorful and fits me perfectly! Now to my legs haha! On my right hip/thigh I have two water lilies in water with smoke clouds. This was done by a good friend of mine Sarah at Eternal Images in Lanoka Harbor, NJ. The back of my right calf has a decaying heart with a bullet through it and a banner that says Love. The back of my left calf has brass knuckles and a switchblade with a banner that says Hate. Both were done by Mike French at Eternal Images in Lanoka Harbor, NJ. I have more but I think you get the point.
Which tattoo artists did your work? All of my work has been done by Mike French at Eternal Images in Lanoka Harbor, NJ; Lara Slater at Adrenaline in Brick, NJ; Sarah at Eternal Images in Lanoka Harbor, NJ; and Dan Binai at Eternal Images in Ship Bottom, NJ. What is a typical day in the world of the Michelle? Pretty boring actually lol.. I wake up, go to work as a title insurance agent, come home and spend time with my son. Sometime I do work from home for some extra cash. Your favorite guilty pleasure? Gambling for sure. I have no luck but I could never get enough of it! What turns you on the most? Honesty and tattoos.. enough said haha Favorite hangout in your hometown? My favorite bar Captain Hooks in Seaside Heights, NJ. What creative projects have you planned in the next 6 months?
