Lusy: My first tattoo I got when I had just turned sixteen.
Ever since I was a kid, I was obsessed with personalizing my things, books, bags, toys, everything had to say
something about me, I wanted people to recognize my
things and know they belonged to me. When I found out
you could personalize your skin and it was permanent,
that was when I was ready to do it as soon as possible.
I must ask… what is/are your favorite styles of tattoo?
Lusy: My favorite style of tattoo is definitely realism, mainly portraits. I could stare at them all day in awe.
Do you like to stick to one artist, or try a number of different ones?
Lucie: I don’t stick to only one tattooer, but different artists
because they all have a different style. I have the chance
to travel a lot and I get tattoos in all countries I visit,
such as Germany, Belgium, Canada, New York, Cuba,
et cetera. Meeting with amazing people and discovering
different cultures thanks to a passion is so cool and it’s
not something everybody can do. I also know a lot of
tattooed models because of my husband, Fabou, who is
the “best photographer ever” to me. So together, we are
in relation with nice people all around the world. I find it
takes a magical part in our life together.
Lusy: My tattoos are mostly done by my brother Joel P.
Blake.
What kind of tattoos do you have?
Lucie: I have tattoos on my both arms, my chest, my
neck, my back, my “ass”, feet, sternum. You just have to
take a look at my pictures to know it! I have a lot of black
and grey tattoos with themes like religion, family, Disney,
portraits, to keep on my skin the most important events/
people of my little life. My last one is the second part of
my chest with roses in black and grey. I did it in Cuba
by a very unknown talented tattoo artists called Ernesto
Varadero.
Lusy: My tattoos consist mainly of portraits from movies
and music and the rest are animal tattoos.
Among all your tattoos, which one do you prefer and
why?
Lusy: My favorite tattoo is my back piece, it was tattooed
by a childhood friend, Ryan Smith and meant a lot, it was
a design he had drawn and created himself and when I
saw it, I knew I had to have it.
As we know, tattoos are “addictive.” Is that what drives
you to get more?
Lucie: For me, it’s a kind of lifestyle, it shows who I
am, tells about my personality and it can immortalize
moments of my weird fairytale… There are some bad
times during a life and life was really hard for me at the
beginning. It’s not a question that tattoos are painful but
as we say, “no pain, no gain!” So, tattoos symbolize my
evolution to success in my life, in my work, and in my
relationship equally.
Lusy: I’m not addicted to tattoos although I look it. I just
love art and what you can do with it in terms of designs.
Do you think you will miss getting tattooed when you
consider yourself finished, if that time ever comes?
Lusy: I will definitely not miss getting tattooed when I feel
I’m finished, I seem to be able to tolerate it less the older
