You are the hole in my head
You are the space in my bed
You are the silence in between
What I thought and what I said
I got a lion to represent courage, which is something that I try to live my life by. It reminds me of my grandma who passed away when I was 5. When she was 12 years old, she smuggled herself out of Morocco by herself, and went to Israel to help establish the country in Israel’s War for Independence. To think of how much courage that would take is mind-blowing and I respect/miss her more than words can say. I got it done at Unbreakable Tattoo in Studio City, CA, by the extremely talented, Jim Sylvia! Amazing experience. Better than anything I could have ever hoped for.
Happy Birthday Marvin Gaye! | 2 April 1939 - 1 April 1984
I have this thing where I just put my hands on the keys. I don’t care where they are. And it’s got to where I can’t sound a bad note. There just aren’t any. I don’t care where my hands fall, they always sound fantastic… Music is what you feel. All notes are good, there are no bad notes.

“I rebel, so that we may exist”
-Albert Camus L’ Homme Revolte
My favorite quote from my favorite author/philosopher. It’s one of Camus’ earliest defiance of nihilism and acceptance of freedom. It is facing me (was told this was unusual), but I personally wanted to be able to read it and serve as a reminder to never give up.
Done at Foundation Tattoo in Modesto, CA. Walked in knowing what I wanted as far as font/placement/etc. and the guys in the shop were very helpful as far as making slight adjustments to ensure it healed and looked it’s best.
First tattoo and I love it. Can’t wait to get more.
