Tattoo designs slash I love watercolours!


I've been looking at different tattoo designs. While I'm still to decide on one, I found the above watercolour of a fox and have absolutely fallen in love with it! I found a few others that I liked too in a similar style, but this just speaks volumes to me and I absolutely want it on a canvas or something!! The one below is also beautiful in a similar way. I love the simplicity, where the colour speaks far more than any solid lines. Cherry blossoms are my other favourite watercolour, in the style of japanese art.





So why a tattoo? Well, I don't know. I've always been fascinated by beautiful artwork, and I've always loved the idea of a (tasteful) tattoo. I don't know why I've suddenly decided to act on it now. It just feels right. I know my mum will flip out, but I don't care. She'll say her piece five times over and that'll be that, apart from the occasional dark comment if she happens to see it. After all, what am I gonna do, wash it off?

At this point I'm thinking I'll get a bunny rabbit, or (very maybe) a pawprint. I'm definitely leaning toward the bunny though!!! The main ones I'm leaning toward are as follows:


Minus the blood and possibly the red eye... Could possibly make it a white rabbit with a black outline, or keep it as is. I really like this image though, although it's quite simple it's also very realistic.

The other major contender! I love the way the nose is the only part with colour, and the rest is all shading. I'd probably remove the spirals though.
So... thoughts?

  1. I do like the fox. It'd be good if you could find a decent one of a bunny in watercolour, although the latter bunny comes close to it I suppose. I like the dynamism of the black bunny though.
