Answer 4

you should be able to get a cover-up designed by the artist.  I remember a friend of mine who got her boyfriend's name done in *huge* letters across her back.  When they broke up she ended up with a huge butterfly instead.  You couldn't tell it said Ricky unless you really looked at it closely.  However, the coverup will have to be bigger than the original design, which could be a problem on your wrist.  You might consider saving up for laser tattoo removal unless you want a 3-inch butterfly or a black panther on your arm!
