I got this tattoo of a matriushka-doll (some people call it babushka)…the reason behind it is because I wanted to dedicate a tattoo to my grandmother who died a couple of years ago..we were really close and when I found out babushka means grandmother, I knew it was right. Also because I’ve loved these dolls since I was a kid, and I collect them., it felt natural getting one..from the beginning I was gonna write my grandmothers name under the doll, but in the end I chose to write babushka with russian letters, since it fit better with the design, and also it’s a bit different from the common name tattooes…my best friend at the time did the design for me…though the tattoo-artist, Asin in Kristianstad, Sweden…forgot to put the nose on her..I think it works anyway:)
