Erich Michaels

The quote is from Hemingway, as I’m an aspiring writer; both forearm tattoos feature trees, which have always been spiritually important.

What inspired your most recent tattoo?

I’m an aspiring writer riddled with self doubt and subsequent tendency to procrastinate. The Hemingway quote is a reminder to do the work and that truth is at the core of good writing.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

It would say that I’m spiritual…believing in the balance of yin yang, the intricate nature of life and transformation. That I’ve always had a deep connection to trees, because of their deep rooted stability and their desire to reach for the heavens and the light of truth. I am a creative.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Man…I’d be so tempted to go for a full on marathon session with Bang Bang! I really want to explore what could be done with a trickster motif. I really want to go on a long cross country train ride where I can take in the sights and get some writing done. If I still have money left, probably pay off some credit cards.
