Oh yes, 4 tattoos and 2 piercings; I would have 3 piercings but my belly ring was rejected. Sad to say, I knew it was going to happen just hoped it wouldn't.
My tattoos stand for many things. They represent that I use my body as a blank canvas, and these beautiful works of art that I have created only add to it. Each tattoo also represents a piece of me and resemble things I stand for.
My very first tattoo is more like a coloring book page in the shape of a heart; it holds several images within it's borders (kinda like how I have different traits that are deep beneath my skin).
My second, a friendship heart with only half colored, is on my wrist. The placement, the color, the shape, and the reason for it are all meaningful and resemble my love for my best friend. The placement: because it is one of the two places you check your pulse (sisters by choice-always in each other's hearts). The color: mine is solid and her's is an outline and when placed together they fit like ying'n'yang. The shape: classic friendship bracelet heart, like when we were kids.
The third ink session was my shoulder piece; Sleeping Beauty's castle amidst a storm and flowers on the outside. Wrapped with a ribbon from my chastity heart to my key. My high school sweetheart and I had somewhat of a dramatic ending to our relationship which birthed that tattoo idea. To remind me that I deserve to be treated like my favorite princess but to still know where I came from (hence the Joshua tree and flowers). The flowers represent inner strength, family, and loyalty. I put the art together myself and the artist is amAzing! {{Mike from Bone Deep tattoo in Apple Valley if you want beautiful work! 💙}}
My fourth tattoo is a verse. 1 Corinthians 13; Love Never Fails. After what I have been through in my life with overcoming depression and an anemic issue, that verse really meant a lot and was close to my heart. I'm not extremely religious but was I was Christian. When I "lost" the "love of my life" (I say it in quotes because that is how I felt when it happen, sincerely feel differently now though) I sank slowly into a self destructive depression (not suicidal), and found out I was severely anemic, I couldn't have done it without the people who loved me and never let their love alter no matter how changed I was or how typos my decisions. I thank god for that; therefore, I placed that verse closest to my heart on my rib cage accompanied by a daisy, a simple innocent daisy.
Thus concluding my explanations of my artwork, there will be more so to be continued...
