My father inspired my most recent tattoo. My sleeve is on my right arm bc my dad was always my right hand guy. My best friend my entire life. I was his princess, which is why it features a Native American princess, with the bf pendant. I buried the other half with him. Beneath her is my wolf tattoo that symbolizes strength, loyalty, family, and spirituality. My dad was my wolf a guiding spirit, representing wisdom, courage, my protector.

My sleeve says THIS IS ME. It shows hours of determination and pain and a beautiful piece of art. It’s mainly black and white but has a few splashes of color for important parts. Like the pendant necklace colored as the original. The eyes of both the wolf &the princess& the one butterfly and dreamcatcher beads. Bc I see him only in my dreams now. My back piece is of another large dream catcher showcasing my Native American culture. I also have my children’s names on my right

Winning the $25,000 would highly benefit my community in allowing me to pursue my lifelong dream! I have planned for years with a complete business plan opening a tiny house community for autistic adults! I’ve interviewed potential community members as well as mental health professionals that have provided insight ideas to make my plan more successful for the community. Winning would allow me to give back. My nephew is autistic and the name of my community will be after him. ❤️Rylans House
