How I did it: After my Dad passed away I wanted something to honour his memory. He had a swallow tattoo from his army days and I love wolves.

I was 17, i had worked all summer and I had felt different than I ever had in my life. Looking back on it I was probably the happiest I had been in as long as I could ever remember. I think I only drew it three times, but I went in and got it done as a late birthday present to myself.
