Enter For FreeThis piece is about what I value most—duty, loyalty, and strength. The soldier stands for service and sacrifice. The Bouvier, for loyalty and protection. Side by side, they say everything about who I am and what I stand for.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?My tattoos tell my story—my mom’s fingerprint, my parents’ dates, my son’s birth, my anniversary. The skeletons? That’s me and my wife, a nod to Día de los Muertos and my love for Mexico. The reaper, the howling dog—layers of life, love, and legacy. Now, I’m ready for the big one: a WWII back piece, a tribute to sacrifice, history, and the Bouvier I loved, forever beside the soldier. I’ve waited, and Bang Bang feels like the artist!
What would you do with the $25,000?I’d use it to make our home truly ours—personalizing the space with a beautiful workshop, a garden, and a gazebo for the perfect outdoor retreat. It’s not just about spending—it’s about creating a sanctuary, an environment that is formed on a foundation of peace that can enjoy every day.
