This beautiful floral tattoo, designed by Dan Bythewood at Regeneration Tattoo in Alston, MA, is one of four tattoos she has.
Dan is a friend of Amy's from college who had studied art then went on to become a tattoo artist.
I thought this one was wonderful, as well:

The word "laughter" pefectly suits her, as Amy is a professional comic. This was also inked at Regeneration, but by Cathy Johnson.
You can see a segment of Amy performing below, as one of her characters, "Ida Felter":
Amy performs regularly in a show called "Dykes on Mics," the second and fourth Tuesday of every month at Comix (353 West 14th Street in Manhattan). It's a free show, starting at 9:00 PM. The next performance is Tuesday, September 28.
Amy's website is here.
Thanks to Amy for her enthusiastic participation in Tattoosday!
