Ernesha Evette Powell (Eve)

My most recent tattoos) were inspired by my adolescent friendship with Ermias Asghedom, know as the late rapper Nipsey Hussle. It was in fact the last tattoo that I got. Which resembles his tattoo on his throat, as well as the prolific tattoo he has which is on left side of my face. Ermias wasn't just a rapper to me, he was someone I was close to. Someone who l learned life long lessons from, and someone I broke all the rules with, with no regrets! He was my inspiration for my latest tattoos.

If my ink could speak, it'd tell stories that would have you on the edge of your seat wanting more! It'd be a tell all of a true LA native, telling stories you'd only thought existed in movies and fiction books.

With $25,000 ... like any other single mother working multiple jobs, who wants the best, l'd secure my child's head start, one that I wished I had. She loves cooking, she's 14 and in 8th grade, l'd fund her culinary start, clear some debt, honestly and finally be able to be a first time home owner. I want my kid to be able to always have a place to call home. Something to have for generations after me like our grandparents had back when we were growing up. It's a feeling that never goes away.
