The phrase "Por Vida" in black glossy Chicano-style script with a pointed V and long swashes, set as tattoo lettering on cream paper. Thick-thin pen strokes with a wet sheen and soft grey shadow, a looped P, a sharp V with a tall hairline stroke and a thin underline curling out beneath the final a, in one line. Swap in your own words or change the ink colour.

A tattoo lettering reference sheet showing the words "Por Vida" exactly, two words on one horizontal line, with a capital P and a capital V and lowercase letters elsewhere. Chicano hand-lettering script: a thick, confident calligraphic script leaning forward at about 12 degrees, with swelling heavy downstrokes and fine hairline connectors, letters joined in flowing strokes. The P begins with a long controlled swash that sweeps in from the left and curls back under the word. The V has a sharp spur serif at its top-left and a long hairline tail that extends beneath "Vida". The final a ends in a single long tapering swash running right. Terminals are sharp and pointed, and every counter and gap between letters is kept open and wide so nothing clogs at small size. The lettering is glossy jet-black sign-painter ink with a very faint, soft grey shadow just beneath the strokes, suggesting black and grey tattoo shading. Black and grey only, with no color. The lettering is centered on smooth warm cream paper, spans about 80 percent of the canvas width, and keeps a wide clean margin on every side. Crisp clean edges, high contrast, easy to trace into a stencil. Nothing else on the sheet: no other text, no symbols, no border.
