Angel tattoos are probably the most common designs for women worldwide. Angel tattoos can be versatile and may be used to create unique designs in a lot of different ways. Angels are thought to be one of the most beautiful heavenly creatures and represent different ideas to different individuals. Professional tattoo studios typically have a number of angel tattoos to pick from and each might possibly be altered into whatever design you'd like. Angels have represented beauty, purity, and spirituality in several different cultures throughout history. The character of a angel has often been employed to symbolize someone's transformation to a higher plane of existence, either physically, mentally, or spiritually.

A Snake and Kali, on Sasha

Gambar
Last month in Lower Manhattan, at the Whitehall Street post office, I met Sasha, who shared a couple of her tattoos with me, including this awesome snake on her arm: Sasha credited her artist Vova Bydin ( @vladimirbydin ) from Electric Anvil Tattoo ( @electricanviltattoo ) in Brooklyn. She told me "it was a cover up and we had to come up with a shape that would allow to cover my previous tattoo, which was an anchor with a rope around my arm ... I love the power and fierceness of the animal so I was happy with the idea." Sasha also surprised me with this stunning tattoo on her thigh: She explained that this is the Hindu goddess Kali , and the tattoo was also done by Vova Bydin and that he "really wanted to do something like that for his portfolio and I was open to it, so we went for it." Thanks to Sasha for sharing her two awesome tattoos with us here on Tattoosday! This entry is ©2019 Tattoosday. If you are seeing this on another website other...

Sarah Nichols, the Peacock and the Cobra (The Tattooed Poets Project)

Gambar
Today's tattooed poet is Sarah Nichols, who shared this cobra-peacock mashup: Sarah tells us: "This is my first tattoo. I had it done in February, 2017, right before my 43 rd birthday; I had wanted one for a long time, but it always seemed like the time or the money wasn’t right. It was done at Witchhouse Tattoo ( @witchhousetattoo ) in Hartford, Connecticut, by Courtney ( @czar_baebatron ) , the shop’s owner. The tattoo is a cobra with a peacock’s head, and it is after the work of artist James Prosek ( @jamesprosek ), specifically a drawing entitled The Peacock and The Cobra . For me, both animals are elegant and fierce; as a hybrid creature, it is beautiful and strange, and that comes across in the tattoo." Sarah also shared the following poem, which is from her chapbook of Sylvia Plath / C.D. Wright centos, She  May Be a Saint , which was published in 2016. Other Bodies In my flammable skin, I grow shadows. Blood, substanceless. An arm a face birthmarks. A box of po...
