Tat of the Week - Hello Kitty Tattoo

Did you know that Hello Kitty is 32 years old? She was "born" on November 1, 1974 in London, England, but she was introduced by the Sanrio company of Japan. She also has a twin sister named Mimmy, who can be identified by the yellow bow she wears on the right side of her head as opposed to the red bow Kitty wears on her left. Hello Kitty has enjoyed mild to wild popularity over the years, never completely fading away due to her appeal to all ages. And now you know more about Hello Kitty than you ever wanted to!

This tattoo belongs to Amanda May and was inked by Matt Dinovo, who can be found at Big Brain Productions in Omaha, Nebraska. This may be a relatively simple tattoo, but check out Matt's portfolio and you'll see he's capable of much more. He's also got a MySpace page, if you're interested in checking that out as well.
