Ink on pause-help a tattoo artist heal and recover

Hi everyone,

My name is Daniel Tapia. I am a dedicated and talented tattoo artist. I have poured my heart into my craft for over 5 years. Recently, I suffered a serious back injury that makes it nearly impossible for me to do what I love— tattooing.

Tattooing isn’t just a job. It’s my passion, a way of connecting with people, telling stories through ink, and I am able to support myself doing what i love. But now, with chronic pain and limited mobility, I am unable to work consistently or take on new clients.

We’re starting this GoFundMe to help cover my medical expenses which are not covered by my health care insurance. Every dollar raised will go toward helping my recovery.

Even if you can’t donate, sharing this campaign would be a huge help.

Thank you for reading, and for supporting my road to recovery

Feel free to reach out to me with any questions.
