Break away? The unwitting question in my mind as the pandemic soared. To uproot and upend. To beat the next split-second life-changing moment. Or wait hoping that no change will come?Restart.
Unwitting change did come, as my mind wound itself around itself, step by idle step down this five-step path

Going with the Flow - 2007

“Flow is the equation of feelings that fluids your brain to doubt and embracing the path making the world a livable place as the water stages in which it is our highest currency of existence.“

“I was creating things none stop, my aura of imagination was flowing in every single second and space I was, I didn’t think about anything else at the time besides I can draw on this media now if I wasn’t tattooing, the necessity of escape reality was a blessing the amount of things I was touching”

Spotted - 2004

Wooow it has been 22 years since I did this painting. This one was the one that was my first business card after I finally had my website when I launched jprodrigues.com the year after 20 years ago.
I painted this one back on my first solo living studio apt in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn

Our life is made of patterns, shapes and forms that define us and our personalities. Acqua Santa Tattoo creates as your structure defines you, enlightening your curves as embracing the moment making you part of the creation time and develop a bond that will last forever.

Believe in yourself, be proud of your ideas, ask yourself, question yourself, doubt yourself but push the limits, take a risk, be part of a rollercoaster with highs and lows, sometimes when you hit a low moment you know deeply there is more that can be achieved.
