So, I just realized now that today is Friday. This week went by much quicker than I realized. Of course, Friday means a scarification follow-up, so that’s what I have for you right now. I think this is probably one of the most beautifully healed scars I’ve seen since I started doing the follow-ups over a year ago. And of course, the scar was done by none other than John Joyce.
Here’s how the scar looked back in May when it was fresh..
And here’s how it looks today..
Honestly, if I hadn’t seen the scar when it was fresh, I would have just assumed this was a white ink tattoo. Fantastic work John.
He calls it fun, we call it amazing art. Aren’t semantics grand?
It’s time once again for another edition of The Friday Follow-up. It also marks the return of John Joyce. His last appearance on the Follow-up was back in February, with this floral leg piece. Today’s scar is a follow-up to a post from back in December of 2010.

Can you believe the second week in February has come and gone already? Well, with the end of another week comes another scarification follow-up. This week’s scar is not only a follow-up, but it is also a preview for a future Friday Follow-up.
About three months ago, John did this series of flowers Froggifairy’s leg and hip.
