So, I know this is just a pretty simple rose tattoo, but it was my very first one ever. I got this tattoo in memory of my grandfather who passed away a year ago (his favorite flower was a yellow rose) and in celebration that I overcame my eating disorder. It really just offered closure for me in the sense that I don’t have to go back to the depression I suffered after his death and that there’s always beauty in a bad situation if you choose to see it. I had this done at Savannah Ink in Savannah, GA. Peter was awesome and super calm with it being my first tattoo. I can’t thank him enough!
