retromutilation

Stepping into a quieter phase for a moment.
I’m taking a short hiatus from tattooing to take care of my mental health and reconnect with myself.
I’m still designing, still creating — commissions are open, and I’m booking future pieces for when I return.
Thank you for holding space for me while I do the same for myself ✧

Self portrait - that I think I will keep layering on as time goes by.
Circles
Three circles in spirituality often symbolize wholeness, divine trinity, or stages of existence.

My life has been a study in love. I have loved people. Art. Moments. Versions of myself that no longer exist.
Am I grieving the loss of those versions I used to be?
Love was a name given to me. What a heavy weight to carry when love was something that felt fleeting.
Thinking I had a duty to show up for others with my heart on my sleeve. Extending it beyond its means
My love has limits.
When I pour it into my art I have to realize that there has to be a cut off point between where the art starts and I end.
Love
Amour
It is the quiet devotion of becoming.
