All pug tattoo are awesome, but today we had to share this funny story, which led to a quirky and unique pug tattoo. It’s a tattoo on the arm of Matt Lowe from Barnsley in the UK. We’re sure you’ll love it as much as we do!
Here is my tattoo of my pug, Doug. Â It was tattooed by the american artist Cecil Porter whilst doing a guest spot at Thou Art in Sheffield. Â It is on my the outside of my forearm. Â It was a bit of a spur of the moment thing. Â I had been booked in with Cecil for a few month and was originally going to get a portrait of Sweeney Todd. Â A week or so before my appointment, we got Doug the Pug. Â I took him to see Nigel, my regular tattooist and it was him that gave me the idea to get a tattoo of Doug. Â I knew I didn’t want a regular portrait so we threw a few ideas around and when Nigel shouted Pug Fiction I instantly knew that was the one. Â I spoke with Cecil and he was really up for doing it. Â He messed about with a few ideas on photoshop and this is what he came up with.
