A tattoo design of Core Symbol: A mountain range silhouette (to represent your shared love of rock climbing and the North Carolina Appalachian mountains — maybe outline Grandfather Mountain or the Blue Ridge). Winding up the mountain is a rope that intertwines, splitting into separate strands at the top — symbolizing each sibling’s individual journey yet connected by shared roots. Personal Details: Along the rope, you could add tiny meaningful symbols: A discreet spiral or infinity symbol for the OCD journey (many people with OCD use the spiral to symbolize their ongoing, cyclical thoughts — the rope’s twists can echo this too). A small open door or key tucked into the design to represent therapy — growth, courage, and openness. A heart or compass rose with subtly worked in to show the family bond. Style: Black linework with fine details — maybe in a delicate single-needle style. If you want color, soft greens and blues could nod to North Carolina’s lush landscape. Placement Ideas: Forearm or upper arm — so each sibling can see their piece and it works well as a matching or puzzle-style tattoo. Each sibling could have the same mountain base, but the rope could be slightly different for each — making them unique but unified. in the style of realistic.
