@dior.gore: So many people ask me how I got into tattooing, and I always reply with "Like most people would get into a cult," and in all honesty, it absolutely was. I was scouted by an egotistical narcissist who just wanted to teach me so he wouldn't have to pay to get tattooed. I went from being an apprentice, to his keeper when he fell off the wagon and reverted from his sobriety. Walking away was the best decision I ever made. I learned to rely on myself and not trust anyone. I'm slowly coming out of my shell and trying to make connections with other artists, but it can be scary when you've experienced so much heartache and trauma within this industry. I pushed through and started my studio, @Blvck Widow Ink in hopes to offer a safe place for clients, and myself, to create art that lasts a lifetime. Thank you for being with me through this journey. I'm going to be sad to say goodbye to the place I once called home for so long. We have so many memories, and I'm glad so many of you guys were a part of them. I can't wait to see where this next chapter takes me.
