Eleanor Tobias is a former Indiana resident who moved out here to Oakland, California recently. Eleanor mentioned to me that 90% of her tattoos have a significant meaning to her. One example in particular would be here rose tattoo she has on her left arm. It symbolizes the beauty and strength of her grandmothers life who was named Rosa who passed away years back. Eleanor's right arm symbolizes her appreciation to her love and interest of Japanese art and culture. She isn't quite done with her tattoos she said and hopes to get more and finish her sleeve. When asked why she got tattoos she said,"I love how tattoos look on people, specially when they are good tattoos! I also love having memories of certain things in my life on me literally to remind me of those times, it makes me happy. Each symbol and object on me is a memory of an event in my life it's like I am my very own picture book"
