Color firefly and moths back piece
by Jake Meeks
28 pieces
Been a while since we got some work in on Tim’s back. This is based on a cool story about a firefly who is so beautiful, Every insect wants to be with her. She will only consider being with someone who has the same fire in their belly as she does. So the moths and butterflies begin to fly towards her to consume her flame in an effort to attain that same fire. Of course they all burn and die. Moral: Don’t kill yourself trying to meet someone else’s expectations. #memphistattooartist #backpiece Done with the help of my friends at
