Tattoos
have slowly rid themselves of their criminal reputation and are now embraced as
works of art
needled
deep into the flesh of people of all ages.
There is
something about Miami that makes people feel ALIVE and ARTISTIC and
CREATIVE.
As you
walk down the streets of beautiful Miami, you can't go more than a minute
without seeing elaborate pieces of art on shoulders and backs. Not to mention,
almost everyone has a hidden tattoo meant only for the eyes of the lucky few.
For me, tattoos are a way for me to express myself and show loyalty to things I
truly believe. As indecisive as I am, I take pride in the fact that I have
the ability to make a decision that will be with me for the rest of my life. I
only have two tattoos, but both hold a special place in my heart and I would
get them 100 times over.
No regrets.
Families all
over Miami and all over the US have adopted this culture as a way to show
unity, my family included.
Para
siempre. Forever.
My mother
is the most important person in my life, and we share the same tattoo on the
same foot.
Forever
we’ll walk through life together. Para siempre.
Waaaaaaiiitttttt... but what are you going to look like when you're old with tattoos?!
