Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.
Show us your ink! MARKED is our new series where we ask locals of all ages, professions and backgrounds to roll up their sleeves, pant legs, and so much more to reveal their marks. Here are their stories:
Name: Christina Felix
Age: Currently 23 and I got this tattoo less than a year ago.
I had the tattoo done with my mother. It's by Tony Olvera at Lady Luck Tattoo Gallery. My mother is the most amazing person to me -- she has gone through many hardships and through them I have learned a lot from her.
We decided after a girls trip from Las Vegas to get a matching tattoo that represents us and our freedom as women and to always remember who we are no matter what is thrown at us.
I got this tattoo on the inner part of my arm because I wanted to make sure I could always see it!
Next Tattoo? I have many in mind, eventually I am getting a portrait of my mom on my arm ( she doesn't know it yet).
Know of any interesting marks? Send us your photos/submissions.
Keep Phoenix New Times Free... Since we started Phoenix New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Phoenix, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Phoenix with no paywalls.
