What inspired my most recent tattoo was all of the incredibly crafted, strong female lead characters in the books that I read. My best friend, and tattoo artist (@_madisoncw), actually designed my most recent tattoo. Her design is of a celestial themed woman coming out of a book, and within the pages of that book are quotes spoken by the characters that the tattoo is modeled after. As well as hidden Easter eggs from each of those books. Professional photo credit to @salmarro_photography
If your ink could speak, what would it say?If my ink could speak, it would say, “Look at how far you’ve come and how you’ve never lost your sense of magic. Like the women in the books you read, look at how strong you are, and how tall you stand.”
What would you do with the $25,000?I would like to use part of the money to either start a nonprofit, or to give back to the mental health organizations in my local community in Kings County. And with the other half, I would like to relocate and gift my mom the house that I currently own. Just because it’s the end of one of my chapters doesn’t mean it can’t be the beginning of hers.
