CREATIVE DEBATE:
THE EDITOR

Harford Magazine is online now at www.HarfordMagazine.com, so if you’ve missed anything, take a look! More people than ever are reading the magazine and our BEST OF 2007 issue has been generating some lively debate. Some loved the cover shot of amazing tattoo art, others felt it was all wrong for our audience. So we thought we’d tell you a bit more about how the cover came about.

BEST OF is all about YOU – your choices, your votes, your suggestions. Every year, we include a ‘Best Thing We Forgot To Ask’ division, and this year we got strong responses for that one. Flesh Tattoo Company was the category winner hands down, so we thought they deserved a closer look.

Many more of our readers than we ever imagined are sporting tattoos. Their tattoos may be a simple graphic symbol, or they may be elaborate pieces of body art that are hidden under a designer suit by day. The clients at Flesh Tattoo Company love the studio for the same reasons they love their hair salons – it’s an upscale chic environment, the artists are up to date on styles and their work can be as discreet or wild as the client wants. In the end, just like BEST OF, it’s up to you.
