First tattoo! Got it on my 18th birthday, was a quote my granda passed onto me before his battle with cancer was to much. "We define ourselves by the best that is in us, not the worst that has been done to us"

Hope is not blind optimism. It's not ignoring the enormity of the task ahead or the roadblocks that stand in our path. It's not sitting on the sidelines or shirking from a fight. Hope is that thing inside us that insists, despite all evidence to the contrary, that something better awaits us if we have the courage to reach for it, and to work for it, and to fight for it. Hope is the belief that destiny will not be written for us, but by us, by the men and women who are not content to settle for the world as it is, who have the courage to remake the world as it should be.-Barack Obama.Done @truecanvas.#tat #tats #tattoo #tattoos #ink #inked #details #fineline #art #realism #realistictattoo #miniature #smalltattoo #bird #albatross #albatros #freedom #hope #birdtattoo #tinytattoo #minitattoo #blackandgrey #tattoooftheday #tattooartist #instatattoo FREEDOM BLADE/ Antoine came to the shop with this knife and a crazy story.

I got it on my 18th birthday as a tribute to my dad. He passed away when I was 6 and I had been planning a memorial tattoo for years before I got this.

It was a pleasure for me to be a part of this project, it reminds me one of the best period of my life. 2008 was a great year! if you guys obviously dont know, i was an “active member” of the scene. who wants to see some photos of that period? of me, of course! 😂🖤 . .A special thanks to my bro @blindmachines aka (matty murder ) for collaborate with me and lend me his pictures from the 2008💖My hobbit tatt with Gandalf's quote "All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us "One of my favourite pieces to date, being able to tattoo the person who trained me and taught me was amazing. We did this cool mini portrait on my bro Terry, of his wife. Loneliness in the universeLoneliness is a feeling that has become one of the characteristic features of our generation Z. In theory, a person as a social being surrounded by other individuals should not experience this feeling. Is it the result of the appearance of social networks and online life for show, or the fact that we have much more information about the world and people that we want to get away from this? For me personally, this has become the main feeling of life and creativity. I didn’t draw, and I thought that I didn’t know how to do it, until I was at one moment at the bottom of the darkest, most drawn and dreary loneliness. Before that, I tried to close the disconnect with the world, communicating with people who were doing something of what I thought, I was never given and never will be. But if it happens that these very people are knocking the soil out from under your feet, then you, like Alice, are flying to the bottom of the same dreary rabbit hole. And that made me who I am now. The more you delve into knowledge, the less you want to communicate with most people and the more necessary it becomes to build your own world. One of my favorite artists, Victor Pivovarov, a representative of Moscow conceptualism, a landmark in unofficial Soviet and then Russian art, in 1975 produced a series of “Projects for a lonely person” that roughly describe a “perfectly lonely” person. I also decided to make a series of illustrations to the philosophical aspects of the consideration of this concept. Still, I'm also a kind of Moscow conceptualist. The second image I will attach the work of Pivovarov.Based on the generalized picture, we can distinguish four images of loneliness: cosmic, cultural, social, interpersonal.So N1:Cosmic loneliness is a person’s experience of his remoteness from the “all-encompassing” essence, which nature, cosmos, and the world can seem to be; God, the "highest mind" '; human history. This refers to the state of mind of a person who realizes that his “life program” remains unrealized, that his personality is not noticed by society, that he has not left “his mark on history”.That was my first need to get it finished This was my first tattoo, I got it on my 18th birthday.It was a long day actually because I had to go to the DMV and get an ID card that wasn't my military at the time. So I waited several hours to get a small elephant on me.
