Rihanna has added a new tattoo inspired by her children, making their colorful dashes a permanent design on her body. The singer took a piece of paper covered in her young children’s artwork to a tattoo artist, who recreated the drawing in black ink on the back of her knee. This sweet family-inspired tattoo was born from a simple childhood drawing made with markers and stickers.
Rihanna gets a tattoo inspired by children’s artwork
TMZ reports that Rihanna’s “fresh ink” came directly from artwork created by her children. According to the outlet, “RiRi took a piece of paper with some of her kids’ sketches and brought it to a tattoo artist,” who copied the childhood artwork onto her skin.The original drawing had several brand colors. The children used red, brown, orange, yellow, green, purple, black and blue markers to draw lines across the paper. Rihanna’s version kept the shape of the sketch but changed the look. The last tattoo appears only in black ink.The kids also added “Paw Patrol” stickers to the paper. Those stickers did not become part of Rihanna’s tattoo design.
Children of Rihanna and A$AP Rocky
Rihanna shares three children with A$AP Rocky. The couple are parents to RZA Athelston, Riot Rose and Rocki Irish.The three children are still very young. They are under 3 years old, although RZA will turn 4 this month. Because of their age, children probably do not yet understand the meaning behind their mother’s new tattoo.The tattoo adds a personal touch to Rihanna’s growing collection of body art. This time, the design doesn’t come from a polished symbol, phrase or sketch. It comes from a casual drawing by his children.The ink also shows how Rihanna has chosen to carry a part of her children’s childhood with her. The sketches may look playful and random, but now they have a permanent place on her body.The outlet described the gesture as “Super cute,” noting that kids will appreciate it when they’re older. For now, Rihanna’s new tattoo is a quiet tribute to her family and a memory of her children’s first creative moments.
