Enter For FreeMy mom wanted to get matching tattoos with my sister and I for Mother’s Day a few years ago. She asked for a flower, any flower. I drew a lotus flower but before I could finish detailing one of the petals, I seen these imaginary lines that camouflaged a bird as a petal. And she loved it. My mom passed away April 1st of this year, 2025. This tattoo will forever speak to me.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?One word…”Originality”
What would you do with the $25,000?Before my mom passed, she kept telling my husband and I we needed to move from our current home and get a bigger house for the kids. I want to make my mom proud and also give my family the home they deserve. I love you ma. Forever and always.
