The Female Touch
|
|
Tattoo artist Julie Ann Grafia makes her mark
|
|
Women with tattoos have been stereotyped as
“bad chicks,” intimidating and permanently stained. If only

the growing popularity of the reality television shows Miami Ink and
L.A. Ink and their now-famous host, the alluring tattoo artist Kat
Von D, understanding, respect and appreciation has grown. A new
archetype of beauty has arisen—that of a woman as a walking
canvas, her sensuous curves accentuated by design and her boldness
permanently proclaimed in ink.

Guiding faith
|
|
Every man of faith is convinced that God moves
in his life. And the more profound is one’s faith, the stronger is
the belief that everything that happens is somehow, some way a part
of the greater plan of God in his life.
