The three dots on my left palm represent the trinity, and remind me that no matter what, God is always with me. The placement is a tad strategic, in that whenever i cry, i use my hands to wipe my tears away, and my palm is the only thing i can see. This way, when i am crying, i am reminded that God is with me.

This is a bit of a funny story. I did the three crosses myself (no gun, just a five-liner tattoo needle) when i was 16. Now that i am 20, i had a friend (who is a professional artist) add the "Nailed It..." Underneath. This represents my Christian beliefs, as well as my sense of humor. 😝Every day I work my hardest, my biggest competition is myself and the tattoo I did yesterday. As such I am thankful every day for having products and companies like @fusion_ink that allow me to push myself further. Every. Single. Day. ..I honestly, coI AM MY OWN GOD. custom filigree letteringDid one of my designs on a guy with the same name as myself. I like the fun in that. Every tattoo is created in communication with the customer. I will always strive to show the connection of the subject with the background. Even if there is no background. “Today i whispered to the devil i am the storm.” The ship represents my strength to remind me that i can withstand anything in the universe.  I use to self harm this tattoo covers my scars and proves to me i can push through
Here is my ankle tattoo. It looks awful, but again, i did it with no machine, just a needle. I was very proud of myself at the time, and still kind of am. ;)My 13 tattoo (back if the neck) is meant to represent my opposition to superstition.Number 14. So that i never forget my first love. “I went on a 14 day silent retreat and it was probably the hardest thing I’ve ever done.Towards the end of the two weeks I had what I think I can only describe as an out of body experience during the 4am session. I felt an overwhelming bubble of sadness and guilt literally rise within me but it wasn’t mine I was just experiencing it for someone else, I opened my eyes in floods of soundless tears that also felt not mine.I forgave my mum there and then, and it felt natural that I would stand by her no matter what, no more distancing myself, no more pushing her to get help, I would just be there unconditionally.When I left and came back home my mum told me she had something to tell me. She’d woken up really early in the morning (around 4am) and she said it was then clear what she had to do and why she had to do it.I believe I felt what my mum was feeling. I still don’t know what my mum actually felt that morning but it gave her the power and motivation to change her life.”I am working on the arm with many tattoos that I did not do, but it is very interesting to play with shapes, contrasts and textures!  Mac Miller from the other side!  happy week everyone #tattoodo @tattoodo“I am the knife. I am all blade.”
