No you explained it great. Thank you. I respect your reasons and answer.I can't explain it well. I've always been fascinated since I was young. It's an art form, a way to express yourself. It's for me and no one else. Im 47 this year and take care of myself but I did them because I wanted them and wanted to enjoy them. Im the type that regrets things I don't do so I would have regretted being old and never have done it.
Everyone has their thing and some do it for fun some for meaning. I have two large pieces that cover my chest and are half sleeves. At the time I didn't go further so I could hide them at work due to stereotypes. I regret that actually.
One themed to my son after he was born and one to my wife when she went through cancer. Each one took roughly 24 hours and are done by reputed artists that I researched and for one even was on a wait-list in another country. Even though there is pain involved if you are into them they can be addictive. I'm not sure anyone can explain it to you for you to understand if it isn't something you are into. Kind of like being into adrenaline activities like car racing motorcycles or skydiving.
All very good ones.
