I started my sleeve first of this year. Never had any tattoos prior. I wanted a piece of art and gave my artist full artistic freedom.

What inspired your most recent tattoo?

The thing that made me want a tattoo was because deep down I’ve always loved tattoos and realism. The way I was brought up and the culture that I was raised in was strict. Getting tattoos is thought of as wrong and defiling our bodies. I struggled for years, even after disagreeing with many things that I was raised to believe. I finally decided a couple years ago to move forward and do the things that I have always loved and wanted to do. It took me a year to find an artist and move forwar

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

Beauty mixed with death and darkness are total opposites but flow perfectly together. A truly remarkable piece of art from extremely talented artist.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Take my wife and three children on a trip of a lifetime. Somewhere unique that will be a memory of a lifetime for us.
