The idea for this tattoo came from how I personally see tattoos. They are a mark on your body that shows your personality, ideals, principles etc. The tattoo shows a statement or image about how you show yourself and how you want to be seen, but throughout the years of having that tat, it fades. Even if small, the picture slowly fades away, deep into the skin where only you know what lies beneath. Further years will soon have that picture turn into a memory, a thought, a mark of what was. While some see tattoos as a stain on the skin, I believe it is a mark of the outward appearance into someone’s soul. “The Body Rots; Yet The Soul Burns” it’s a smile picture of a soul marked with the alchemist symbol for sulfur. When a body fully rots the smell of sulfur tends to be the strongest, yet what that person is known for, the ‘soul’ will stay in the ideas and hearts of those who live on. It will burn with a flame hotter then the smell of sulfur and overpower even the stench of death itself.
