When Intermission Feels Like It Will Last Forever
I don't know about all of you out there but personally it feels like I'm living in a strange movie that is only played at intermission, and I'm waiting for intermission to end but it's not and now this movie I didn't sign up for has taken over. I went for the Circus to the Apocalypse pretty quickly and like most our there I'm wondering what will happen next. I carry a large level of concern for others throughout this period, wondering how all the artists I've come across this year are doing.
This break in getting tattooed, in seeing my working artist friends, in seeing people in general, in receiving the healing energy and touch of having my journey in life documented through body art.
Tattoos are such a healing and connecting experience for me and the women who have tattooed me have brought so much joy and clarity to my life. It leaves me saddened to think of all of these women at home, waiting for this Pandemic to end, their art and livelihood cut short. But most of all I am saddened by the loss of connection and the pause in meeting so many amazing women artists.
So to all the amazing women past, present and future, thank you for enriching my life, documenting my journey and agreeing to share a piece of your art with me.
