✨This piece marks a beautiful milestone—his first tattoo ever!✨
Every symbol is woven with meaning: resilience, protection, abundance, and connection to spirit. From the Kappi crab representing adaptability and ancestral ties to the lightning as a reminder of duality and balance, this design tells a deeply personal story.
The rice crops, fish, and nipa hut root the piece in abundance, survival, and the safety of home. Together, they create a powerful reminder of identity, strength, and connection to both the earthly and the divine.
It was an absolute honor to create this for him—thank you for traveling all the way across the border to trust me with your first tattoo! 🫶🏽
