How will I use the winning designs?
I can’t promise the winning design will be 1:1 placed on my body. But I can promise that it will be an essential part of my mood board.
If I decide that to use the artwork 1:1 I will be providing additional rewards later on.
I will publish a full report on both my mood board as well as the end result.
Why this contest?
I have been through some difficult periods in my life and will be facing new difficulties early 2025. I am looking to symbolize something that means a lot to me and I hope that it can provide me strength and support when things get rough.
I am very much a perfectionist – so although I was certain that I wanted a tattoo, it withhold me that it would last forever. In my mind I needed to find something that I would still love when I would be 80 year old.
2 weeks ago I realized what I would could use to symbolize my feelings – a sunrise . After connecting with some friends that work as/with tattoo artist I got send back home as I only had the topic but didn’t created a mood board yet. As a perfectionist I am simply struggling to get designs for my mood board.
Oké, give me something to work with!
• Two weeks ago I wrote a post on what the song sunrise from Norah Jones means to me @rainbowdash4l/what-is-that-one-song-to-you
• Sunrise symbolizes for me:
New beginnings: despite how difficult an period in life can be , this can be threated as a separated event. Tomorrow is a new day.
My wife supporting me during my rock bottom – using this song to walk down the aisle when we got married really attached some meaning to this song.
• Family man! Married and 2 younger kids (2 F)
• Marathon runner (training early mornings! Love seeing the sunrise in my city).
• Initial thoughts on tattoo placement – forearm (inside) => but open for other places.
• First tattoo.
