My most recent tattoo was an American trad butterfly, placed on my left hand, it holds both aesthetic and personal significance for me. At its core, the inspiration for this tattoo came from a mix of wanting to help complete a sleeve and its symbolization of growth, freedom, and change. There’s something about the classic American traditional style-the thick lines, bold colors, and timeless look -that I can’t get enough of. It being on my hand gives me a dailey reminder of these.

I would be weary around those who don't curse if my ink could speak cause it would most likely say "HELL YEAH WE LOOK AWESOME", or something probably worse. Besides that it would probably say things like "woah another one already, I just got here" . That being said with the different styles they would all speak different languages too and have different opinions which I live for. I do have a sparrow and that one would most likely chirp instead of speak.

I would invest a large amount of 25,000 into my education and betterment of artistic skill. I would use it to help support myself while practicing art and college courses (art major ). Another portion of it would be used to travel to different well known/ different tattoo shops throughout the world to get tatted and hear about different cultures views on tattoos and styles ! Than I would most likely use a dollar or two for a sand which if I got hungry, maybe a bicycle too.
