Meaning behind my tattoo
<html>
<p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/fwqY5bn.jpg"/></p>
<p>I have two tattoos on my back. Sometimes I forget that they exist since it's not in a visible area. They remained covered until the summer heat reaches me. When they are out in plain sight and then suddenly revealed, I get surprised reactions from those that I'm just becoming familiar with. I am very petite so I think it's the size that comes as a shock.&nbsp;</p>
<p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/TzG9ssj.jpg"/></p>
<p>The artist who created this beauty was <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reime_in_paradise/">Reime Jahr</a>, a local Minnesotan. You can find her at <a href="http://www.evolutiontattoomn.com/about/">Evolution Tattoo </a>in Bloomington. I met her through an acquaintance and have always admired her style. Overall, she's a fantastic artist with a great personality. She's also a gigantic dork like I am!&nbsp;</p>
<p>I wanted this image to have a whimsical feel to it. I trusted Reime and gave her full artistic freedom, which is difficult for many. She's shared stories of clients who would micromanage her from start to finish.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Reime was actually the one that suggested that I place an animal in the center. I chose the fox, which has similar attributes to my own.&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
  <li><em>Wisdom</em></li>
  <li><em>Cunning</em></li>
  <li><em>Strategy</em></li>
  <li><em>Cleverness</em></li>
  <li><em>Adaptability</em></li>
  <li><em>Quick-thinking</em></li>
</ul>
<p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/yEW1Yk2.jpg"/></p>
<p>The frame represents the expectations that are placed on us. The forest [<em>which are dreams</em>] cannot be contained within that frame. I paint outside of that frame. As you move further from the center of the frame things because more realistic.&nbsp;</p>
<p>I plan on getting my entire back and maybe my hips tattooed. It's kind of annoying to have so much negative space open, but I don't want to carelessly add art. I've only ever thought of tattooing things that hold significant meaning to me.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The ideas I have so far are to add in landscape with a waterfall on my upper shoulder. Cascading flowers and a pond to incorporate the existing lotus flowers that I have on my lower back. I've thought about adding nymphs, but I probably wont have the space for the details.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Thanks for reading.&nbsp;</p>

I think your tattoos are beautiful! I'm the same with you on that I don't like the negative space but don't want to add more tattoos to just fill that up. I'm not in a hurry to get my whole body tattooed, rather just add things when I really have a great inspiration for it :)
