Tattooed Mamas

My new scanner/printer arrived today!  I have spent the last six hours playing around with it.  IT IS AMAZING!  It has built-in templates for notebook paper, calendars, old school handwriting paper, graph paper, musical staff paper, etc. that will print borderless!  This borderless-ness blows my mind - my old deskjet could barely get the paper to run through it.  Also, I printed a couple of photos on some glossy paper, and they look like I picked them up from Target or something!  :D  Ah!  I am so in love. <333

I was able to scan a bunch of artwork, which will be added gradually.  It took a matter of seconds to scan an image at 300 dpi, which really impresses me.  Maybe I'm just behind the times, but when I scanned images way back when, when I had scanner access, it used to take several minutes to scan any high resolution images.

So to celebrate:  The Tattooed Mamas.  I want to do a series of images of 50's housewives, all inked up.  This project may or may not happen, but here's a sketchy start.  And you bet they have tramp stamps!!
