As summer of 2016 sets upon us , we transition into August with new inspiration , stories , and of course , tattoos . Sara X Mills , draped in Junker Designs — custom made threads for the likes of musicians , movie wardrobe , and more is the first model in the history of InkSpired Magazine to grace the cover twice . The L . A . based fashion house has outfitted many of your favorite rock stars , actors / actresses , and models . Surely , you have seen Junker Designs in movies such as Sin City and Machete Kills .
In “ A Competition of Camaraderie ,” we feature a man ’ s Japanese traditional full body suit by tattoo artist , Aaron Coleman . Both have won numerous awards for this tremendous piece of human art , which is a living example of the beauty that comes from overcoming adversity . Success stories , especially those represented through tattoo art have always been a major source of my inspiration . Sometimes we all need a second chance at this one shot of life .
When the Holy White Hounds came to perform in Denver at the Marquis Theater , we knew we had to partake . Their live performance , captured in this month ’ s music section was nothing short of impressive . With a lot of talent and awesome energy , they are definitely a band to see live .
As we continue on our exploration of tattoo culture and lifestyle evolving , I ask you , “ what ‘ InkSpires ’ you ?”
