Tattoo Design

Tattoo Design
Thinking about your next great tattoo design? Here are a few tips to help you on your quest. Choose colors that are appropriate for the tattoo, but also appropriate for you. This is generally a permanent venture, so you want something that you like and will enjoy seeing on your body for the rest of your life. What colors are your spirit? If you are commemorating an event, what are its colors? If you are honoring someone, what colors do you associate with them? Let your color scheme work with you. Choose a tattoo design or template that fits your personal spirit. The design should speak to you. If you want a butterfly tattoo, go for it. You may wish to combine several designs to create your own. Add elements, or if you are an artist, draw your own tattoo design. Finally, you may have heard this many times, but it always stands to be said again. When designing your own tattoo, you may want to think twice about putting someone’s name on it. There are a few celebrities that we can look to who can attest to this. Many people put people’s names on their tattoo designs and wind up covering the name later. So think ahead.

Like virtually any form of art, tattoo design is a very subjective medium. Meaning every single person that sees a particular tattoo or tattoo design will have a different opinion of it, unless that is, the artist is good enough to have people look at his work and just stand there awe stricken. Their mouths hanging wide open in utter amazement. When you’re that good you can make peoples minds up for them nearly every time. Just show them your tattoo design and blow them away.
The tattoo design we are looking at here is not really as good as all that. And don’t get me wrong, this is a very strong rendering. I’m just saying its not a traffic stopper. That being said this one is conceptually very interesting. I suppose it is meant to be an angel of some sort. Perhaps an arch angel. Like Gabriel or Michael. The well toned body of a man with a large set of angel wings attached to him, much like the arch angels of old have always been portrayed to us. There is also a look about him that is somehow inviting and not scary which would make one think he is a good guy. This is certainly a very imaginative tattoo design.
