A father’s love for his child is an unwavering, profound force that knows no bounds.
It’s a beacon of strength and guidance, shaped by tender moments and shared experiences.
From the first heartbeats of anticipation to the countless sacrifices made, a father’s love is a steadfast presence that nurtures, protects, and encourages.
It’s a bond built on laughter, support, and unspoken understanding, a connection that weaves stories of devotion and shapes the essence of a child’s journey through life. Of course, parents show affection in different ways, but we just have to admire these fathers who decided to get tattoos of their children’s drawings—a beautifully perfect way to cherish them forever.

On Instagram, the tattoo artist proudly showed off a series of photos featuring Eric’s arm adorned with meaningful tattoos.

Each tattoo had their name, lovingly inked in their own handwriting, serving as a beautiful tribute to their individuality.
“Eric and I have had two sessions so far that started with the self-portraits of his daughters, Graci and Isabel. At that first session, we started talking about how much fun it would be to create a sleeve from there. We came up with the idea of them drawing their versions of tattoo ‘flash’ so that he could choose which tattoos would be next. His daughters were over the moon and have been drawing up a storm! It has been such a fun project and this is just the beginning with much more to come! ” She said.
