My Next Tattoo

I have one solo tattoo, located right below the base of the back of my neck, of a bulls head. Ndegwa means “bull,” and my tattoo celebrates my heritage as a Kenyan-born, Kikuyu girl colored in black, red, and green, colors from the Kenyan flag.

One day while on Snapchat, I ran across one of my girlfriends, Wyze Love, getting a tattoo from a local artist. I love the work on her body -> Every. Single. Piece. And immediately dm-ed her only to find out that the artist was Antonio Grajales, a fellow Massachusetts College of Art alumni and friend.

I am not sure what I want next, I have a couple of ideas sketched out and have to figure it out before taking up Antonio’s valuable time. In the mean time check out his work here and contact him for appointments.
