Enter For Freet’s a dark ornamental butterfly that I got on a trip to Mexico City. I went to a drag show at a club with my girlfriends where we made like 10 other friends who we danced together with that night. They all had a butterfly tattoo except me so I wanted to get one too.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?It would speak mostly about nature and spirituality tied to the countries I’ve been to and the love I have for the artists I chose. My tattoos say a lot about what brings me most joy in this life and the simple beauty that I can carry on my body as a reminder of why I like to be here. They show how far I’ve come and give me hope and peace to stay strong for future. They speak to me of the little things in life that are most important to me, everyday.
What would you do with the $25,000?With 25k I would be able to go back to college to finish my art degree in sculpture and mixed media arts at VCU since I had to stop my pursuing my studies during covid due to financial hardship. I’ve been teaching children full time to save to go back.
