Keith Anderson, a devoted dad in Ontario, has found a unique way to remember his son Kai’s childhood – his right arm is covered in tattoo designs based on drawings by his son that he has been getting every year since Kai was 5 years old.

“The first one of these cool tattoos was the daisy- I had it done when he was in kindergarten,” Anderson told Chance Faulkner, a photographer who had an interview with him and took these pictures. “Then we went back and did his name and the house from when he was 4.”

“Recently, my son was there with me and he did some of the tattooing of his drawing ideas himself. He loves it. No one I know has ever heard of tattooing original kid’s drawings before, and it’s a lot of fun… People ask me what will happen if I run out of space for new unique tattoos; I guess I’ll just get him to draw smaller pictures.”
