Read the Lidimist Manifesto
The Manifesto talks about how I think today's art should be and how I think when doing my own art, from literature to tattoos.
I'm Rodrigo Favarete
I'm a Full Stack Engineer by profession, but I was an artist before that and before everything else. I never was able to leave art behind during my entire life, no matter how hard I tried, and I tried many times for different reasons. I mainly do paints and tattoos. I actually think that both arts are similar. It doesn't matter the canvas if the art tells something meaningful.
