In Search of a Tattoo Design

Okay... now, for some bizarre reason, I am thinking of getting another tattoo... SO.... the interactive part of me thought... "Why not see what Zaadzsters can design?"
Here's the skinny:
I like lotus imagery
I like the Aum symbol
I like purple / blue / green - deep hues
I like sanskrit
I like Fire imagery - subtle though
I like Dragons - the long skinny ones
This is just to give you creative sorts some ideas to start with ...
Anyway... once I get this "I want a tat" feeling, it usually takes about six months to a year to finally decide on the design... sit with that for a while and then go for it.... so, I am going to leave this Creative Interactive open to anyone who wants to submit their design ideas... including location for design.... given of course the fact that I've already got two tats that already occupy space.
As the new designs come in, I will post them in my blog... and then see what happens in about six months or so....
Now is the time to be inspired...

oooo! This is fun! Thanks Kel! I know that Diane, http://dancingdragon.zaadz.com/, has many dragon friends and may have some designs or thoughts…I know a great website…http://www.tattoosymbol.com/spiritual-tattoo.html…it has examples of virtually everything…hope these help!
Love this idea!! Are yo saying that as they are posted we will be able to vote for our favorites?? This could be some big fun!
Thank you Michele!
And yes, Diane, that is a good idea!!! I will create a photo album that will hold the artwork that I receive and in a few months I will have everyone who wants to participate vote on their choice.
If you can find images of “IX Chel” the Mayan Goddess of healing, you might like to consider that image. Please let me know what you think!
Very cool suggestion!! Ixchel is in my Goddess Guidance oracle cards! “Medicine Woman” … “you are a channel for Divine healing power.”
Her symbols: Lightning rod (one who can conduct the power); Moon; Lady Rainbow; prisms.
I like this a LOT!!!
I just found this while catching up with my friends. :)
I just got my very first tattoo a week and a half ago. It is an Om. Four colors, purple, blue, green and yellow. I absolutely love it. :))))
Had to share. ;)
What do your other tattoos look like? I am considering adding to mine. :)
re: tattoos,
“one is too much and two is too few”
“you know you're getting somewhere when you stop talking about how many tattoos you have and start thinking about the percentage of your body that is covered in ink” :-)
and the best i've heard, to put it succinctly:
“all or nothing”

Hello! I have something in my photos that might appeal to you. It is a watercolor that I did 2 years ago of an Aztec artifact that I happened to see.
I am not sure how to get it to you here …. maybe a link?
if you go to my page, it is there in my photos. Since there are only 2 photos and one is flowers (my icon) it'll be easy for you to find.
Thanks!
Peace

I'd be happy to share the link to your image: HERE.
a friend of mine (Elaine) is a very talented ink artist on paper; if you are still interested I could probably get her to whip something up..
I am so late seeing this Kel. I have done a few very similiar in vein of my sumi e paintings. Oh well.. you wrote this back in Sept! ha. Serves me right for not being on here enough. Much love to you
Are you still looking for tattoo? My son is a wonderful tattoo artist
a couple of his from his portfolio is in my photos and I can get more.
