Beautiful in their individuality and art & to each of his own. The uniqueness behind my ink…is myself. It’s my story.
Join now for your shot at $25,000, a tattoo session with Bang Bang, and a feature in Inked Magazine!
Enter For FreeMy most recent tattoo was a compilation of many over a 6 month bender. A time where I completely lost myself and died 1 million times inside. I was recently diagnosed with cancer and then my father died in my arms a week later. the world around me crumbled and unfortunately, that was just the start. The last five years have proven to be just that, but also the beautiful creation and release of a complete warrior. For me, I was turning the chaos into color.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?Since I was young, I’ve always been drawn to art as a way to express myself. Born and to a world where using my voice to express myself in anyway, was not only unacceptable, but also unsafe. requesting the spotlight for any amount of time was asking for the bad. Therefore, this is how I speak my words without my words. my tattoos, are loud & they are strong. They don’t hide or backdown. They scream that the pain is only brief, but what’s left behind is beautiful. I am alive
What would you do with the $25,000?Life’s tested every part of me since the beginning of me, building the warrior within.Shown again in 2017, cancer @35, my father passed in my arms & victim of a violent home invasion. I ask not for pity, I ask for your vote. My son, 15 was recently diagnosed with metastatic brain cancer & the clock started. With it I’d secure a safe place to sleep, a car & my last chance to have my baby home for the rest of whatever forever is left.2gether. #konnorstrong
