an artist in my neighborhood (literally lives two or three blocks over from me) inspired it. they’re also the designer of the tattoo. it was one of a few pieces they wanted to do on someone, and that someone became me. supporting an artist in my own neighborhood felt great.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?if my ink could speak, it would say “add onto us! expand the family!” lol. my anime leg sleeve has been unfinished for years.
What would you do with the $25,000?If I won the $25,000, I’d donate to the animal shelters I follow on instagram, pay past due bills, put money to the side for vacations with my son, buy my best friend some tattoo supplies (my son’s dad/my best friend tattoos & he’s done two of mine), and— oh yeah, GET MORE TATTOOS!
