19. So what’s the story behind that tattoo?

Meet my friend Cécile: scientist turned tattoo artist, lifelong doodler and the person behind more than a thousand tattoos. Some of you might already know her as @pimoosink, the artist whose work has attracted a following of thousands on Instagram. From drawing graffiti at six to swapping antibodies for ink, her path has taken her from biotech to her own tattoo studio, with a banana making a rather unexpected appearance along the way. This is a story about creativity, taking the unconventional path and discovering that sometimes, the art you’ve been making all along can turn into something much bigger.

I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
