I’m Filipino from Hawaii. I wanted my ink to portray my culture and personality. My tattoo artist took inspiration from a mural in Hawaii.

I wanted something to address my Filipino heritage since most of my tattoos, felt a little bit more Hawaii based. We took the Filipino son as the base and added some touches that would incorporate into the rest of my sleeve.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?I think it would say that being a tattoo on my arm is like being at a summer party with your best friends.
What would you do with the $25,000?With $25,000 I can continue working on my tattoos. Ha ha. What I’d really like to do with it is travel the world and experience more cultures. I still need to go see the Philippines in person.
