It wasnt put there to be readable, it's a way of incorporating 'mother' in a graphic way without writing it or getting a DOB or anything. If I just wanted to write mother on my back I would have done. The butterfly is a symbol of who I am.
Hi Bob, yes the symbol is more intended to be abstract than an actual readable word. I wanted to incorporate being a mother into it and the chinese symbols looked really nice across the wings, far nicer than just writing it.
