Riccardo requested a simple tattoo to represent the bond between him and his stepdaughter, whom he feels very close to.
He is a gude for her and she is a reference for him as well.
Taking inspiration from old school style we used a lighthouse as the main symbol for its meaning of reference and guidance, using an acorn as the lightbulb (it´s her, still at the beginning of a path that Riccardo has partly walked already).
The waves at the base represent difficulties they both faced while the ivy branch symbolizes their attachment.
