Star B

I'm an oncology nurse. My particular profession has taught me that life can be shorter than we expect and to make the most of the time we have. Most of my tattoos are personal - about overcoming a difficult time or situation. The 3/4 sleeve on my right arm is about "turning a new leaf". Essentially, letting go of the guilt from some of my past trauma which had led to an eating disorder. The bird in my sleeve tattoo symbolizes the Serenity Prayer, which is about accepting what is out of your control and recognizing what is under your control. The cat portrait is for D.va, my current cat. The bat pinup girl on my left hip is a tribute to Betty Page, with a kawaii twist. Some of my tattoos were more spontaneous and more about the aesthetic - such as the rose on my left hip and horn vine on my left side.
