Jake Bailey

I've only ever had one professional tattoo. And I love that piece. It conveys me watching over my sons even if I'm not there.

What inspired your most recent tattoo?

Long story. 60 minutes. Yakuza report I seen as a kid. They got samurai suits. I'm gonna assume you know what that is, but just like them I wanted my life tattooed on me. Though turned out the artist was a meth head that couldn't follow simple directions. So an hour in, I realized and left after paying. You ever fought a meth head? Exactly! But all my tats are memories or meanings of my life. Lol it was supposed to be for family and an old love. Both of which are gone ugly to look at nowadays.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

"This fucking idiot needs help! Kinda. Guy has a good heart, but shredded mind from self abuse and others abuse! Ok, yes he is Jake from State Farm now after he was homeless. He fought to get there! But he still needs help dammit! Bastard is never gonna get what he wants, just what he deserves!

What would you do with the $25,000?

Probably get both arms finished if that fell in the price range. I need my arms in armor to defend myself! Lol. But seriously those areas would be a huge step towards the dream of being covered from wrist, to neck, to ankles. Though GF thinks a neck a neck tat would suit me. Not sold yet. But yea, I'd get arms fully covered and get done whatever else I can. I love my tats. And I know I'd love every thing I could get.
