Butterfly and Four Leaf Clover

I am starting a collection of tattoo stories. I want to immortalize the story connected to the art that the person liked enough to have permanently imprinted onto their body. I am not here to judge; I am merely sharing the story behind the art.

The Four leaf clover:

This person started finding four leaf clovers at a very young age: at age four they found a patch of them underneath the swing set. After that, they continually found four leaf clovers, often spotting them as far away as across the street. This particular tattoo was acquired in Houston after they lost a job. There’s a spiritual connection to four-leaf clovers: the common three-leaf-clovers are connected to Christianity and the holy trinity. This person is not Christian and finds that four-leaf-clovers represent a more all-encompassing kind of spirituality, symbolizing: faith, hope, love and luck.

Butterfly:

The butterfly is a life form that this person always had a connection to. The butterfly always seemed hopeful, and it’s a happy symbol. This person chose a permanent design that could only be seen as a symbol of hope and happiness, and not have any negative connotation. The shape much like a four leaf clover, and this person doodles them all the time. This tattoo was acquired in Salt Lake City.
