John is a long term collector of mine going back to 2013. For his right sleeve he wanted to dedicate this part of his collection to his closest friends growing up, who was killed senselessly in his youth. Memorial-inspired work is always challenging to get the energy right. Spirit, warmth, memory, and closure, with a grace and synergy that isn\u2019t focused on pain or hurt, but peace and acceptance.<\/p>\n
Being Greek, it is important for him to use Greek characters and symbols throughout his entire collection. In Greek mythology the swallow carries the souls of the children that pass. The bottom of the sleeve ties into his existing piece on his left sleeve. Hermes would guide Perseus through the adventures they were on, much like how John\u2019s friend guided and helped him when they were young.<\/p>\n","images":["https:\/\/www.noahminuskin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/JohnL1.jpg","https:\/\/www.noahminuskin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/JohnL2.jpg","https:\/\/www.noahminuskin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/JohnL3.jpg","https:\/\/www.noahminuskin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/JohnL4.jpg","https:\/\/www.noahminuskin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/JohnL5.jpg","https:\/\/www.noahminuskin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/JohnL6.jpg"],"image_ids":[130,131,132,133,134,135],"categories":[{"name":"All Collections","slug":"view-all","id":18,"catLink":"https:\/\/www.noahminuskin.com\/category\/collection\/view-all\/"},{"name":"Animal","slug":"animal","id":44,"catLink":"https:\/\/www.noahminuskin.com\/category\/collection\/theme\/animal\/"},{"name":"Family","slug":"family","id":37,"catLink":"https:\/\/www.noahminuskin.com\/category\/collection\/theme\/family\/"},{"name":"Full Sleeve","slug":"full-sleeve","id":29,"catLink":"https:\/\/www.noahminuskin.com\/category\/collection\/location\/full-sleeve\/"},{"name":"Greek","slug":"greek","id":43,"catLink":"https:\/\/www.noahminuskin.com\/category\/collection\/theme\/greek\/"},{"name":"Spiritual","slug":"spiritual","id":40,"catLink":"https:\/\/www.noahminuskin.com\/category\/collection\/theme\/spiritual\/"}]}]
