Got this is part of a teen suicide prevention event. I remember when I was struggling with depression, what got me through the toughest times was the unconditional love of friends and family (infinity heart symbol), faith that things would get better (crosses in the middle), and knowing that my story wasn't over yet (semi colon). All three individual elements come together to form a butterfly which is a sign of new life/beginnings.

First tattoo I got with my little brother. I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes on February 5th, 1994 (3 years old) and it's played such monumental role in making me into the person I am today. It taught me to never give up on what I wanted, and to never let anyone tell me what I could or could not do simply because of my illness. I can do exactly what everyone else can, i just do it in my own way. When my little brother was diagnosed at 15, he had a tough time adjusting to it, so I promised him that if he could reach his goals with his Diabetes, I would pay for him to get a tattoo. He has the same design but the date reads, March 7, 2010 for his date of diagnosis. I've also had lots of people comment and ask questions about it which gives me the opportunity to advocate about Type 1 Diabetes and how it differs from Type 2. Serves as a good medical alert symbol as well in case I emergency.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💖When I was in high school my parents got divorced. Butterflies were a sign of hope for me as a child. My mom would sign each card with three butterflies for me, my dad and her. With me in the middle and the antennas always touching. I never wanted to loose sight of the love that brought our family together so I got this tattoo as a reminder of all the good that can come from love. 11 hours later across two sessions and it's finally complete! This tattoo is so much more than a piece of body art, it's a visual representation of a journey 25 years in the making. A second chance given to me allowed for my father to get a second chance as well. We have fought some tough battles but through it all, we still hold strong and whatever the future has in store for us, we will cross it together. Adorn your skin with a timeless symbol of faith and love. Benji Charnock's masterful technique brings the sacred heart to life in this traditional tattoo.It's love your pet day and the fact she chose this day was just a mere coincidence! This memorial tattoo is to always remember the happiest dog in the world, the amazing Aria ♡ She lived fast and fully, a great life full of joy and adventures!
Tattooing is always a story. For example, I forgot about this sketch for a long time, but @rozbeshchena_dytyna found it just at that moment when life had one interesting event that she told me about and now it’s smthng like medical secret. And how we made this tattoo, a story also came out, because a pipeline was broke in the studio and we were listened the sounds of a waterfall. And there was also a problem with robots from online banking, nearest terminal didn't work and it took a lot of time to find another and understood that problem is totally different. My whole life consists of super ridiculous and stupid situations about which I already realized that no matter how bad was during it, then another story will come out of itGot this tattoo with my mum. The semi colon is for depression and the symbol in between means i love you to the moon and back times infinity.- Ouroboros - - Snake eating it self forming a circle with the tree of life in the middle , a tattoo that represents life and death • https://www.roudolfdimovart.com/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”.Really proud of the level of detail yet smoothness i managed to reach with the wrinkles. A little better everyday. What an amazing occupation“Put two ships in the open sea, without wind or tide, and, at last, they will come together. Throw two planets into space, and they will fall one on the other. Place two enemies in the midst of a crowd, and they will inevitably meet; it is a fatality, a question of time; that is all.”– Jules VerneThank you Olivia for your trust and for the complete freedom with your idea! Project was done few months back, as usual. A bit about the project:“Altair is part of an asterism called the summer triangle (which joins Altair, Deneb and Vega) to help us see in the stars that it's summer. The summer constellation will resemble the significance that this summer and year has had on me since I have gone through quite significant struggles this year and the tattoo will mark me turning over a new leaf.” – OliviaThe other significant inspiration was the H4 Harrison clock: “Aided by some of London's finest workmen, John Harrison proceeded to design and make the world's first succes
