My ink represents who I am, a lot of my favorite memories, and those who have meant a lot to me! Tattoos are my preferred form of expression

Learn MoreMy most recent tattoo was a small one on my hand which is a fish hook and fishing line with year 1938 in cursive as if it was written within the fishing line. I got this honor of my grandfather who has passed away and wanted something that would honor him and my memories with him as we used to go fishing a lot when I was child. We would fish for rainbow trout which we would bring back to my grandmother who would make us fried fish sandwiches with lemon.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?If my ink could speak it would tell the stories of moments of my life whether it be sentimental or just random moments I wanted to capture with ink because it would be permanently on me. It is kind of like having your own personal art gallery for yourself. It’s my favorite version of storytelling, if someone were to ask why this, I can be like this is when I went to Mexico City for the first time, this is in memory of my grandma who passed in 2018, or I got this just because it looked cool
What would you do with the $25,000?With $25,000, I would pay off some of my student debt and then I would also like to add some of it my savings. I would also like to use some of it to get started on rebuilding my 1969 GMC pickup with my Dad.
