What are your hopes, dreams, and goals?
Mishayla
Ever since I was young, my hopes, dreams, and goals have changed over the years, but for the last couple of years, one dream/goal has been the same. That dream is to learn how to tattoo. Over the last couple of weeks, I have been looking more into it and there is a big possibility that these hopes and dreams will come true.
As a little girl, I was always connected with my inner creativity, taking something that was nothing, like a blank piece of paper, and turning it into this huge beautiful art piece. The best thing about art is there are no wrong answers, no proper way to do it, and it’s a place where you are allowed to be completely free and yourself.
As I get older, I’ve applied my art techniques to something bigger: myself. I got my first tattoo on my 16th birthday and ever since then, I have been fascinated by the artwork. I started to draw on myself and I came up with some very beautiful designs. This led me to the conclusion that this is where I belong.
I belong sitting in a studio that I have created, giving people tattoo’s that I’ve created, and bringing people joy by doing something that I love more than anything. Being able to find something you love and feel like you belong is an amazing thing. I can’t wait to be sitting in my chair, hearing the sound of a tattoo gun and the smile on my clients’ faces.
