Raffaela sent three photos:
Raffaela says that this is "my own design mixing a Chinese dragon, representing strength, and the lizard, for the soul's search of awareness, so that it could protect me and guide me through the eternal pursuit of knowledge."
This piece on the lower left side of her back/hip was her first tattoo, done at Studio Tat 2 in Brazil.
Next is a piece on the right side of her chest, near the collar bone:
The "mater" is the Latin word for mother who, Raffaella proclaims is "done for the most important person to me in this world, my mother, father, best friend!" This piece was inked at Fabio Tattoo, also in Brazil.
And finally, this last tattoo, which you get a small glimpse of in the first picture above, is just breath-taking:
These are her angel wings, "done to achieve my dream of reaching New York." She adds, "I definitely flew from Brazil to NY." They were tattooed over six months. The tattoo was started by Eric Codo ("just the outline...he had to move to Rio de Janeiro) at Steel Star Supply in Sao Paulo and was finished by the "Amazing Fabio Renato".
