Paris Jakson, who recently got several new tattoos on her arms, has revealed that her inks cover her scars and past struggles.
The 18-year-old actress took to her Instagram page and shared a picture, wherein she showed off new tattoos with her hands behind her head alongside caption, "the craftsmanship of tattoos will always be a controversy. some people like them, some people absolutely hate them. i appreciate art, i always have. especially when that art means something to me," E! Online reports.
Late Michael Jackson's daughter added, "Today i can look at my inner forearms and see art that has meaning for me, i don't see a dark past anymore. my scars and past of self-hatred have been covered by loving marks, creativity, ingenuity.. and depth."
"I see ink as a way of changing for the better, always improving. they represent strength for me. i look back at my old self and then i look in the mirror, and i see a fighter looking back at me. i'll always keep fighting, and encouraging others to stay strong", said Jakson in the post.
Paris has nearly impressive collection of 23 tattoos.
