Michelle Holzinger

It's not an uncommon trend but most of my tattoos come out of tragedy. It helps me to walk through it. Feel my feelings.

What inspired your most recent tattoo?

The passing of my grandmother. It's an owl carrying a ball of yarn flying in front of a grandmother clock with an infinity clock face. The owl represent my grandfather who passed a few years beforehand and the yarn represents my grandmother. He came to carry her into the infinity of time. It was hand drawn by my friend Ashley who is an amazing artist.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

You're gonna be ok.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I am a single mother to a teenage boy. We've never had it easy, but we get by. I'd use the money to put a down payment on a home of our own. Currently we live in a small apartment and my son's bedroom is the living room. We just barely scrape by and there's no room for saving for a downpayment.
