Looking for Butterfly Fairy Tattoo Designs and Tattoo Art
For people who thought that tattoos were all about pinups and anchors, think again! Many people have decided that the art of tattooing is perfect for expressing various facets of their personality, and it just so happens that many people love to express themselves and start their search looking for butterfly fairy tattoo designs, and the perfect tattoo art. When you are looking for butterfly fairy tattoo designs, you'll find that you have many to choose from. Find the one that best complements your style and your sense of humor, and you'll find that you have a lovely piece of art that will stay with you your whole life.
The first thing to think about when you are looking for the right butterfly fairy tattoo designs is what you are trying to convey. What is your fairy all about?, where can I find good tattoo artwork. When we think fairy, we usually think of pretty girl fairies, but fairies can be boys as well. What does your fairy look like, and what is it trying to express? Are you getting a fairy because they symbolize nature, or sweetness or happiness, or is it something else? Are you looking for an angry, Gothic fairy, or are you looking for one that is round, happy and sweet?
You'll also find that when it comes to butterfly fairy tattoo designs that you have your choice of wing designs. For some fairies, their wings hardly seem big enough to get them off the ground, instead staying small and cute, while other fairies have long and sweeping wings which are perfect for fluttering or soaring. Take a look at tattoo art in some insect books, and figure out what sort of butterfly wing pattern might appeal to you. You may also decide that you want to design the wings yourself, or to have your tattoo artist come up with a design for you.
When you are looking for some great butterfly fairy tattoo designs, you'll find that you have plenty of license to simply look around and see what kind of tattoo art is available. For instance, famed fairy artist Amy Brown has whole pages on her site dedicated to fans who have decided to get tattoos based on her artwork. Are you an artist? Chances are, a talented tattooist can put your art right on your skin, so take a look at this option as well.

Tribal Cross Tattoos and Holy Cross Tattoos
For thousands of years, crosses have been used in all types of Christian faith. The holy cross tattoos are a simple design that has taken on many forms, especially among tribal art tattoos. Tribal cross tattoos have become main-stream in tattoo parlors around the world, and known for their distinct look of heavy black lined ink and beautiful bold shapes. Originally this style of art was inspired by the Maori tribe and has now been adopted by many modern day groups such as the Gothics with their Gothic Cross Tattoos.
Even as there are many different styles or versions of the cross, the meaning is all the same in sentiment or tradition. Tribal cross tattoos and celtic cross tattoos are the top choice among tattoo seekers; they have so many interesting and unique designs that can be incorporated. Most people who seek out tattoos do so for sentimental reasons or to show their heritage pride. The holy cross tattoos are less a religious statement and more often used combined with a tribal tattoos cross for ornamental looks. A simple cross has four sections which we call the "cardinal points", and have been interpreted among the Christian faiths as the world separated into four elements. It is also said among the Christians that the never-ending lines represent the divinity and the world.
What makes a tribal cross tattoos such a sought after design is the fact that they combine the ordinary cross with the beauty of tribal art. Tribal cross tattoos can be done in the traditional black only ink but also have been seen in beautiful tribal colors such as red, green, blue and purple. When colorful flowers or fairies are added to it, it can be a beautiful design choice for women who prefer a more feminine look.
The Celtic cross is another form of the holy cross tattoo used in the Catholic churches in Ireland and around the world, and it is also considered tribal. There has been, over the years, some debate as to whether the cross is indeed a Christian symbol, simply because it dates back to before Christianity, to the British Isles.

Robbie Williams Tattoo
Body art comes in different forms, the most common of which are tattoos. Tattoos are one of the most ancient forms of body art, for which you will be providing the canvas. And because tattoos have soared in popularity over the past decade, there is no shortage of tattoo "studios" more than willing to practice their artistry on you.
Tattoos originated as ancient, symbolic art forms, and many of them retain their symbolic meanings today. Although there are still some people who get tattoos strictly based on the design, some of those people tend to regret their choice of tattoo later on in their life. Tattoos can be quite beautiful, and capture a lot of positive attention. Most people who decide to get tattoos today choose them for their symbolic meaning, as well as the beauty. Men and women alike have tattoos, some small tattoos, some large tattoos encompassing their entire body and today tattoos are more common than ever, particularly small tattoos.
Tattoo artists are no longer willing to place dull lifeless designs in a seemingly haphazard way, but they tend to treat the body as a three-dimensional canvas onto which each tattoo is placed, to live in balance with the body and any existing tattoos. Permanent tattoo designs differ depending on culture, religious affiliations, gender, or personal liking and selections. For certain tattoo designs, some people prefer to look at real life photos or browse through artwork for ideas pertaining to their tattoo designs.
Many individuals select tattoo designs from those presented at a tattoo parlor, while others prefer to do some research and help ensure that their design is unlike any other. While there are tattoo designs that are gender specific, it is important to keep in mind that getting a tattoo is a very personal thing and the image that is ultimately chosen should be one that reflects something that is important to the wearer.
Although there are some exceptions, most men and women will naturally be drawn to different tattoo designs. Of all tattoo designs, women commonly select small feminine tattoos with hearts, butterflies, flowers, lettering, etc. Men, on the other hand, often prefer that their tattoo designs be placed on the upper arm, like a Robbie Williams tattoo on the chest or back.
Some of the more popular themes center around the following:
*Butterlies *Dragons *Flowers *Crosses *Fairy *Irish *Celtic *Animals *Dolphins *Tribal
Some popular sub themes are:
*cat tattoo designs *zodiac tattoo designs *dolphin tattoo designs *heart tattoo designs *small feminine tattoos
With the exception of those that have already chosen their preferred image, it can be very difficult to select from the many tattoo designs on the spot. Most of the time, people do not take the time to really think about why they choose a particular tattoo and look at other tattoo designs that are available. It takes a lot of decision-making as well as researching for meanings of different tattoo designs and ideas. There are millions of designs out there for tattoos - including different color combinations that have helped to make tattoos the phenomenon they are today. If you are ready to make a significant investment in your body art then custom design tattoos are for you.

The Secret to Getting a Great Tattoo
The secret to how to get a great tattoo is to be prepared. If you've decided to get a tattoo, you should research the process first. Many people don't bother doing their homework before they one and then they run into trouble because they regret the decision later down the line.
The first thing to remember is doesn’t rush headlong into it. Many people choose one on a whim. They rush through the whole process. If you really think about your options first, you'll have much better results.
So, to be prepared, first, you have to come up with a design you love. You can visit tattoo parlors and look through artists' portfolios, research on the internet or talk to friends with tattoos to get ideas. You can consider something traditional, such as fish or stars, or you can opt for something more intricate. The choice is yours.
Many people rush headlong into the choice. They choose something that doesn't reflect their personality at all. Then, they wind up with something that is generic and mot at all expressive. Such people do not understand the secret to getting a great tattoo.
The secret to choosing the special tattoo that you can enjoy for years is patience. It may seem like you have to get a tattoo right now, but every tattoo parlor on earth is not going to close tomorrow. Consult several artists because they each bring their own unique talents to tattooing.
Some specialize in tribal tattoos, some in floral work, and some in fine details and so on. You should find artists whose talents mesh with your vision of what is the design you love the most should look like. Taking the time to really make the right choices is vital.
You can choose from images and designs that make sense within your desired theme. Your tattoo artist should be able to sit down with you and help you choose the best one. They can even sketch out designs for you to review. If you have any questions or concerns, your tattoo artist should be able to address them and clear them up for you.
By taking your time, you will be much happier in the long run. There's no need to rush into anything. Do some research and think about your options. Then you'll be sure to be able to enjoy your great tattoo and show it off for years to come.
