InkSpot - What “InkSpires” You?
“I’m inspired by beauty and art. And that translates into
what ‘InkSpired’ means to me. Anything can be expressed
in the form of a tattoo.” -Monica Sims
“Since I was a kid, I’ve always loved the way art looked
on my skin. I would draw, paint, and color things all over
myself. No one can take away that type of expression for
me; it’s mine. Now that I’m older, tattoos hold the same
kind of significance for me.” -Heather Dean
“‘InkSpired’ means having the fortitude to wear a
permanent story on your body. Leaving that story out in
the open for all to see and interpret how they see fit, with
no care to how they see or feel about it. Mapping one’s life
as it comes and inevitably goes. Whether it’s a direct story
of my journey or it’s the things that my heart beats to. It’s
my way of being a living, walking work of art. Art that I and
only I have. It’s my uniqueness proclaimed to all; it’s my
journal.” -Joel Strothoff
“I think it means taboo freedom. Our society believed
that tattoos were for military or prisoners. Now it’s a
free expression of art on skin. And most times it’s a
conversation starter.” -Danielle N Leroy Scott
“Literally...the words freedom, love and faith are tattooed
on me for my children - Freedom Ray, Elijah Faith and Tiki
Love.” -Dale Tolmich
