Like leaves on a tree, when light becomes more dim and days grow colder the true colors have their chance to shine through. When we have hit rock bottom, and the only way to go is up, whether out of desperation or courage we can't lose sight of the light. In hopes of a brighter future, we must continue to fight for what we believe in, in all matters and areas of concern. Meanwhile surround yourself with the good in the world, there is a lot of good in the world. Can we now shift focus on to matters that have been suppressed, like #dakotapipeline and #mosul_iraq for the sake of the children ✌🏻✌🏼✌🏽✌🏾✌🏿🌎🌍🌏

Recent piece for Shannon, gypsy kitty honoring her 3 special needs furkitties🌙. She also had a cover up for me to tackle on the lower wrist, but she did get a few sessions of laser to lighten the piece and allow to have a brighter coverup within my style not have a dark cover up. So props to you Shannon for taking care of yourself and making my job less stressful 🙌🏻 and thanks for being you and adopting special needs pets!!!! #blacksagestudio #adoptpets #specialneedskitty #honorthespirit #art_we_inspire #coveruptattoo #cattattoo #crescentmoon

Honoring the warrior spirit in Carrie, I prepared her tattoo layout using an old Technique I learned when spending time in Australia. Laying stencil with more organic materials that flow easier with the body, whether with long grass, leaves or thread as I did here. Honoring the warrior women in Carrie, I used waxed string and rubbed it in stencil paper to make the transfer more successful into skin. Enjoy this process even though it was a more simple task. It felt more right to do it this way then with marker or pen. #honorthespirit #sacredtattooing #ritual #honorthefeminine

Today the start of Dia de los Muertos I honor my friend and her strong tie to the spirit world. Sometimes it's the smallest things that make the biggest impression. Spending a morning with my friend Carrie, and talking of her amazing path this year and her time living in Mexico. Honoring her own spirit, through her spirit guides, finding her purpose and honoring the feminine. With that comes the 3 lines we laid together on her left hand. The Ida nadi guides the feminine, which is the left side of the body. Acknowledging this and pulling it more to the surface gives representation of the feminine and aids in a reminder to balance the self. Reinventing the self. Women of today can be hardened as we seek respect. Hardening is conductive to the cultivation of masculinity, however to the feminine self it is toxic. Femininity is not a trait of weakness, nor do we need to suppress our feminine self to acquire success and respect. There is great power in mastering the art of femininity and I am so happy to see so many women catching on to this today. We bring something different and necessary to this world, male dominated industries or not... do you!!! And Do it the way you want and how you Do because as a woman we Do things differently. And that's ok🙏🏻❤️ thank you Carrie for showing me more women are growing within themselves and honoring the power of femininity. A video will be posted of the process. #honorthespirit #dayofthedead #diadelosmuertos #blacksagestudio #honorthefeminine #idanadi

Enjoyed working on Nicole today, a more detailed silhouette of a woman, not just all black, will be highlighted by the glowing orange energy of the woman's conscious appreciation of earth, and earth above will have energy rays towards the woman's heart. Lots of fun flow for this hip to thigh piece. Can't wait to get back into this next month. Thanks nicole🙏🏻 #inprogress #blacksagestudio #visionarytattoo #appreciative #givingthanks #motherearth #femaleenergy #watersign
