Connect What inspired your most recent tattoo?

My most recent tattoo was inspired by (to me) my battles I’ve been dealing with. It is the other mother’s hand from Coraline holding the skeleton key to the other world. In my eyes it’s a symbolism of I am the holder of the key to my life no matter what others try to show me.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

It would say I’m not what people think of me. I am a fighter, I am a survivor and nothing is stronger than my own strength to get through the many obstacles I have overcome come in life, medical, mental, physical and emotional.

What would you do with the $25,000?

If I won , I would use the $25,000 to buy my own home and take myself on vacation (with some friends n family), new tattoos, further my tattoo artist career and to pay off bills. I have been living out of my car and hotels so to be able to finally get my own peaceful place and an area to further my tattoo career would be astronomical.
