My latest tattoo(s) are inspired from my recent trip to the Philippines: three tribal symbols from my province—the sun for vitality, the moon for reflection, and the python for strength. I also added an ANBU symbol on my shoulder because I’m a Naruto-loving dweeb. Rendered in bold black linework by a local artist, these pieces celebrate my heritage, passions, and journey. They remind me of the balance between light and darkness, tradition and modernity. Believe it!
If your ink could speak, what would it say?“You’re only young and sexy with tattoos once. Then you’re just old and sexy with tattoos for the rest of your life.”
What would you do with the $25,000?Honestly, I’d use the 25k to get through grad school and other education. I’d also use it to fund passion projects to help out the various communities I’m a part of. I have this idea of a docu-series I want to pilot. I’d interview local artists (tattoo artists, artists, dancers, musicians, community leaders, kendama players etc.) while getting tattooed. We’d explore their home towns and witness their day to day lives on how they’ve become their very own &ldqu
