#tattoo journey

Life events:

This past Wednesday I performed my first tattoo on a slab of pig skin.

I did a few different designs that my mentor picked out for me, and went though so many emotions while learning how to properly use the tattoo machine.

This coming week my mentor wants me to tattoo a small design on myself and her, I’m really nervous, but after apprenticing for 11 months it’s nice to finally have the machine in my hand, practicing the actual craft as opposed to just watching, stenciling, setting up, tearing down, etc.

It’s so bizzare to have a career path, to be working towards something else and new.
