fuckyeahtattoos: My left shoulder. Reference by Ernesto Caivano. Tattoo done by Phil Colvin, owner of Memorial Tattoo in Atlanta, GA. I saw Caivano’s work in a publication by Phaidon. I’ve always been an artist, but sometimes I feel incapacitated by my own hesitation and lack of confidence. There was something so liberating about finding a well respected, skilled draftsman who creates work based on his own beautiful, epic narratives. Thank you, Caivano, for reminding me to self-validate, to be fearless and disciplined. WOWw. This is an incredibly beautiful tattoo. Congratulations, sir.

“In my next life I want to live backwards. You start out dead and get that out of the way. Then you wake up in an old people’s home feeling better every day. You get kicked out for being too healthy, go collect your pension, and then when you start work, you get a gold watch and a party on your first day. You work for 40 years until you’re young enough to enjoy your retirement. You party, drink alcohol, and are generally promiscuous, then you are ready for high school. You then go to primary school, you become a kid, you play. You have no responsibilities, you become a baby until you are born. And then you spend your last 9 months floating in luxurious spa like conditions with central heating and room service on tap, larger quarters every day and then, Voila! You finish off as an orgasm! I rest my case.”

– Woody Allen (via sacraments, quote-book)
