My most recent piece was a Luna moth. I used to be terrified of moths growing up, till I heard a tale one day about how when the world was suffering and grey, moths and butterflies were supposed to give part of their color so we may have light, but only the moths were willing to do so. So they gave all of their beauty so the earth could have beauty again. That resonates with me, giving all of yourself for others.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?It would say, you’re looking at someone who shouldn’t be here today. But I am, so I make do and will continue to make do, with what I have. Everything I am today is because I kept pushing and by the universes will, will keep doing so.
What would you do with the $25,000?Pay off my debt, I became a partial amputee in 2018 at 21. Someone ran a red light causing an accident that caused my amputation , since then I have been paying off medical debt, on top of school debt and personal. I just would like to not be in a place of struggle, maybe even afford a nicer prosthetic hand.
