Answer and Explanation:

"The Illustrated Man" is a short story by Ray Bradbury. The narrator meets a man by chance one evening. This man's body happens to be covered in tattoos, but they are not ordinary. Let's answer each question at a time:

1. How did the Illustrated Man get the illustrations on his skin?

In 1900, while he worked for a carnival, the Man decided to get tattooed to keep his job. He found this woman, whom he calls a witch. She was a skin illustrator and she claimed she could travel in time. After tattooing him, she went back to the future, and the Man hasn't been able to find her again.

2. How does he feel about his illustrations?

He hates them. Even though the illustrations are beautiful, the Man has been trying his best to get rid of them. He has tried to burn them, to peel them, but to no avail. The reason for his anger and disgust is the fact that the illustrations show the future.

3. What happens to the Illustrated Man's right shoulder blade if he's around someone for a long enough time?

Unlike the rest of his body, the Man's right shoulder blade has no special design, just a jumble. After spending one hour with someone, this jumble takes form and shows that person his/her future. A woman will be able to see her whole life, what she'll look like when she is old, how she'll die. A man will see his tragic death, such as falling off a cliff. For that reason, no one wants to be around the Illustrated Man.
