I got this downtown (Toronto, again) on my 33rd day~O~birffs!This one is my absolute favourite. I used to draw spirals in my ears in grade seven & eightish, while my spiral obsession started to grow.  This was a collaborative effort between the two tattoo artists who did it & myself.I wanted a spiral in my ear, but they'd mistakenly done a downward instead of an upward one, after we'd discussed the different meanings of each, in different religions/religiousular doodle~like thang && other er ceteras.  That doesn't matter though. Thar be lotsa ways to fixify & cozificate the different meanings & non~meanings.I knew I wanted sparkly expressions with fireworks & expressions of Jillianisms. The timing of this tattoo happened when it was supposed to =)  ~ After I came out to myself (as well as a few others), after I moved out on my own after a seventeen year long relationship & into the beginnings of a life  that is more me. They managed to help me express all the feelings wonderfoilly! I still will be adding to this, as necessary, without too much overdoing it. This is like a wee ka~smirch of what my "soul" er whatever looks... feels like.I shall add all the information aftorb.~☆♡☆♡~=J

Did one of my designs on a guy with the same name as myself. I like the fun in that. “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!

The making O' Space Mew, dooontooon TerRanna (The 'ronto... er, Toronto). I shall add the shop & artist after. They were both awestacular!This is a work-in-progress.  I like sharing the process.This is a freehand japanese inspired backpiece i love doing all styles but this is one of my favoritesLoneliness 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”.“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 decided to do somethin different. Not as the dragon you used to, but a close up, face to face
