As an artist, I always love to find and draw inspiration from the mystical, the mythical, and the fantastical. Dragons and distant lands are always my go to, as well as the exploration of human body and tattoos when I create my artwork. Tattoos are a fun hobby of mine and a potential career of mine. What better way to express tattooing and the human form than to "tattoo" a mirror, where all my interests were implemented. Mirrors are interesting to explore as we use mirrors to see ourselves. They also symbolize how people must look at their inner self to the core. For this exhibition, Introspection, I continued to research tattoo artistry and started my process, drawing designs into my sketchbook, cleaning them and sizing them up to scale on digital art programs, where I proceeded to print the designs out onto tattoo stencil paper. Each of my designs had different ideas in mind- such as rebirth, the self, inner self, and being grounded and connected. I proceeded to apply the stencil to my liking, took a rotary tool with diamond engraving bits to etch and engrave the design into the mirror.
