Grateful to be featured in @voyagelamag ’s Inspiring Stories series. I wanted to share a bit about my journey - how I found tattooing, and how it became a new language for me to express everything I’ve learned from art, design, and life itself. It still feels surreal to look back at all the twists, doubts, and restarts that brought me here. This isn’t a story about success, but about growth - learning, failing, trying again, and finding meaning along the way. Endlessly thankful for the people who believed in me and guided me through this path - especially @sashatattooing and @nora_ink , who have been such incredible mentors. Deeply grateful to everyone I work alongside with every day at @sashatattooinggallery - I learn so much from their dedication, creativity, and heart. Being surrounded by people who truly love what they do keeps me inspired and grounded.💛 Thank you for reading, and for letting me share a small piece of my story.🌿 https://voyagela.com/interview/daily-inspiration-meet-esther-oldenkamp/ 📸 Photography: @stellaleephotos
