A wise man once told me that the longest journey I will ever embark on is the journey from my head to my heart. And so as I'm not one to waste my time, I learned to listen to my gut instead.
Consciousness starts in your gut, so be mindful about what you eat and keep processed irritants away from it.
Your gut contains hundreds of millions of neurons, which are connected to your brain through nerves in your nervous system sending bidirectional signals. When you damage your gut-biome, you damage your inner wellbeing physically and emotionally.
This also has little to nothing to do with the actual tattoo I just thought I'd carefully spoon-feed you the above.
Thanks for reading! And thank you Elle for your continuous trust over the years. We've been building a sleeve for Elle based on her life experiences over the years. You can see an old healed work the other side of her arm if you swipe.

“Your children are not your children. They are sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself. They come through you but not from you. And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.You may give them your love but not your thoughts, for they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, for thir souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you. For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday. You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth. The archer sees the make upon the path of the infinite, and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far. Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness. For even as He loves the arrow that flies, so He also loves the bow that is stable.”– Gibran Khalil GibranThank you Ben for your trust and for the complete freedom with your idea! Ben’s Day I. - Tom's life story sleeveTom wanted me to visualise his life experiences from childhood to present day, both good and the bad and his outlook on the future. We spent 3 days together so far, and more is to come. You will see progression of this project in the coming days. It is highly rewarding when there is mutual trust and the connection is strong from the get go between me and the client.“The paradox of trauma is that it has both the power to destroy and the power to transform and resurrect.”– Peter A.

You can't have been in one place and another at the same time. Of all those lives, which one is the right one?- Each of these lives is the right one! Every path is the right path. Everything could have been anything else and it would have just as much meaning.”– Mr. NobodyThank you Daniel for the trust and complete freedom with your idea! “The mindset of how I see myself has changed, from “being” to “becoming” as I know I’m not limited to whatever I am right now. I’d like to be reminded that I can always be a better version of myself if I keep working on it, while I’m in peace with my current state.” Project was done a few months back while I was visiting home in Hungary.

While they might not fall into one’s lap incidentally, taking action will dramatically increase the amount of possibilities being presented.Tom wanted me to visualize his life experiences from childhood to present day, both good and the bad and his outlook on the future. We spent 3 days together so far, and more is to come. You will see progression of this project in the coming days.“The universe is a multi-dimension al creative process, constantly forming new facets of possibility for you and all living things.

No one else has the same memories. No one has the same dreams.The reason I talk to myself is that I'm the only one whose answers I accept.” ― Lois LowryThank you Alicia for your trust and for the complete freedom with your idea! “This [spruce] tree means a great deal to me. I grew up 50 meters away from this tree and therefore had the chance to see its majestic beauty evolve from season to season for more than 25 years. This tree can be seen from anywhere in a 10-mile radius and therefore brings me confidence and a sense of joy and peace as it reminds me of my days as a young and innocent girl who had ambitious dreams. It reminds me how far I have come to this day. It also reminds me of my Home, my Family, my Friends and my dear pets.” Done at the beautiful @southcitymarket-Finest black ink in London-Books open for LondonInquiries:peter.laeviv@gmail.com.....#tattoodo #sin“...so i will greet youin a wayall loved thingsare meant to be greetedwith a tear in my heartand a poem in my eye.” ― Sanober Khan, Turquoise Silence Thank you Jessica for your trust and for the complete freedom with your idea! A reflection of a beautiful journey which was lived through with her late partner. You guys remind me every time with each story of yours to appreciate life and hug my loved ones for which I am indescribably grateful for.

“I have always had the sensation of having to choose which path in life I should take. I have been torn between the decision of excelling in this physical reality, and doing everything in my power to make my time here on Earth truly incredible. Or to dedicate my life to the exploration of the universe found within, however this would result in excluding myself off to the world around me. After trying the latter for a year I came to the realisation that I need to find a balance, I discovered that love is at the core of both paths but one cannot work without the other, there is a symbiosis at work. I need to find a way to do both…”– ElliotThank you Elliot for the beautiful thoughts, your trust and complete freedom with your idea!

So arrogant. Everybody's going to save something now. Save the trees, save the bees, save the whales, save the snails. And the supreme arrogance? Save the planet? We don't even know how to take care of ourselves; we haven't learned how to care for one another. And we're gonna save the planet? By the way, there's nothing wrong with the planet in the first place. The planet is fine. The people are f*ed! Compared with the people, the planet is doing great. It's been here over four billion years. The planet isn't going anywhere. We are! We're going away. Pack your stuff, we're going away. And we won't leave much of a trace. Thank God for that. Nothing left. Maybe a little Styrofoam. The planet will be here, and we'll be gone. Another failed mutation; another closed-end biological mistake.” ― George CarlinThank you Mike for your trust and for the complete freedom with your idea! Cant wait to go back to work and for you all to inspire me with your stories.“The world is given to me only once, not one existing and one perceived. Subject and object are only one. The barrier between them cannot be said to have broken down as a result of recent experience in the physical sciences, for this barrier does not exist.”― Erwin SchrodingerThank you Charley for your trust and for the complete freedom with your tattoo! I loved working on this one as its subject is very close to me. “There's something poetic about the basis of life being greater than the known universe. Similarly with wave-particle duality, I was always taught that electrons were subatomic particles so to discover that they're also waves opens up a whole new bunch of questions that I'm looking to answer. In short what I'm looking for the design to represent is the unanswered and unanswerable questions but also the comfort that comes from the unknown.”By @peterlaevivInquiries:peter.laeviv@gmail.com.....#tattoodo #singleneedle #londontattooartist #tattooart #bla“Two roads diverged in a wood, and I – I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.” ― Robert FrostThank you Miguel for your trust and for the complete freedom with your idea! Thank you you all for giving me the freedom to do what I feel is right. Tattooing in the past year has become more than a self expression for me. My process developed to have a strange connection that I was never actively seeking or longing for. A connection with your life stories and feelings, however little may I know about them, I am confident at this point that it will just work itself out. It happened gradually and now it’s symbiotic with the journey. Immensely grateful for for it.By @peterlaevivBooks open for London via email, check highlight “book”Inquiries:peter.laeviv@gmail.com.....#tattoodo #singleneedle #londontattooartist #tattooart #blackandgreytattoo #microrealism #finelinetattoo #fineline #ink #tattooing #tattooartist #londontattoo #tattoo #pet“Suppose you see somebody strange in your room. You get scared and open your eyes and find that there is nobody. Was it a dream?You most likely saw your own version from a parallel realm. Many versions of you exist in parallel realms. Difference between any two versions of you can be as little as that of a mole or as big as that of gender.”– ShunyaI created a simpler version of this design some years ago (it was never tattooed), some of you might even remember. Scott wanted to get it tattooed, so I decided to add to it to make it a more ‘current’ version of mine. Thank you Scott for your trust!

I haven’t had them since and I really miss the feeling. It felt like I was sliding on a tubelike soft surface into a hole, where there is a source of a bright light. I wasn’t thinking about anything, and can’t really tell if it was my body sliding or my mind. I believed and still believe that the route was taking me to an another world, to an unconscious one.” ― ZhaxiyangdanThank you Zhaxiyangdan for your trust and for the complete freedom with your idea!
