My most recent piece is an anime sleeve — it’s a tribute to the characters that really hit me, the ones I connected with on a deeper level. Every single one represents a lesson I’ve taken with me, whether it’s about survival, sacrifice, identity, or finding strength through pain. It’s not just fan art — it’s a timeline of the growth I’ve gone through, told through the stories that shaped me. I wanted a physical reminder of everything those shows ta

“I am the story she couldn’t tell out loud so I wrote myself in blood and black, in bloom and bone, in fangs and flame. I am the quiet rage, the sacred ritual, the reminder that beauty and brutality can coexist and she holds both with grace“ Every piece is a reminder of who I was, what I survived, and who I decided to become. Butttt some of them, I just got because they look cool too lol

I’d invest in turning my creative passions into something bigger; a platform, a brand, maybe even my own studio space. I’d use it to pour into myself the way I’ve always poured into others. And of course, get more tattoos.
