Connect What inspired your most recent tattoo?

My most recent tattoo that wasnt a flash tattoo was my medusa tattooo. This is important because of the meaning of the tattoo, and what makes this a unique medusa tattoo is that it is just "her" eyes with the head piece of snakes. I said "her" because my artist ended up using my eyes as inspiration because she loved the depth and shape of my specific eyes.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

I think I connect with people because of the disney aspects of my tattoos but my right arm gets a lot of attention because of how random and fun they are. There is something on my right arm that can speak to anyone. So if my ink could speak it would speak to those interests everyone has and they would remind those to be unique, inimitable, and expressive.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would of course treat myself to some new ink that I want, but outside of that I would be able to live again. I would be able to start paying my student loans, and live more comfortable without having to count penny and penny to get by. The last couple years have been rough, especially working full-time and trying to finally complete my bachelors degree, so doing school full-time as well, which finally happened come May 10th. I would be able to not have to worry about simple things in life.
