Enter For FreeMy latest tattoo is a peony covering my wedding date. After seeing my ex remove his, I realized it was time to let go—but I wanted to honor the growth, not erase the past. Peonies symbolize healing and new beginnings. I incorporated sacred geometry from my back and colors from my sleeve, uniting all my tattoos into one story of transformation.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?If my tattoos could speak, they’d tell the story of my soul—past, present, and future. As an artist, I use my body as a canvas for deep spiritual lessons, memories, and connections. Each piece is intentional, reflecting where I’ve been, who I love, and the growth I’ve lived through. Nothing is random; every mark is meaningful.
What would you do with the $25,000?As a single mom and artist living paycheck to paycheck, I’d use the $25,000 to build a more stable future for my son and me. I want to give him the financial freedom I didn’t have growing up and create space to grow my art without constant struggle—investing in both our dreams and security.
