Why Would Anyone Get Feet Tattoo?

Here are some pictures of foot tattoos

The question is a valid one. People usually get tattoos because they are a visual representation of something important to the wearer. If a person really wants to physically exhibit a pictorial image, why get feet tattoo?
foot tattoos images

First of all, people don’t always wear footwear that fully covers their feet. Women especially wear open footwear, and feet tattoo would be seen more often than not. This would apply to men as well who live in warmer climates, since they would often be wearing sandals or flip-flops.

Secondly, feet are a very attractive part of the body for many people. Having a foot fetish is not as uncommon as many people think it is. In this case, getting feet tattoo could be an extremely titillating enticement to attract some wanted attention to an area of the body that can be a real turn-on for some people. An erotic bit of artful ink on an ankle or an instep would be a welcome surprise to a new partner if they were seeing feet tattoo for the first time representing some exciting sexual iconography.

Another reason that someone would get feet tattoo could be the very reason that feet are covered the majority of the time. Not everyone gets a tattoo to boldly let the world know their feelings. Some people are more subtle. Feet tattoo would suit this kind of person perfectly, because they would have the satisfaction of wearing ink without anyone knowing, unless they decide to let someone in on their little secret.

Cool dragon tattoos for men

2009-10-21T01:33:00.000-07:00

Do you love the dragon tattoos? There are western and eastern dragon tattoos, no matter what they mean, but these kind of tattoos are really awesome! Men do love Dragon tattoos.

For men, most of dragon tattoo designs do not include color—mostly because men tend to believe that adding color makes the tattoo less masculine and more feminine. There are different dragon tattoo designs in color that can be for both men and women.
dragon tattoo designs for men

One of the nice things about dragon tattoos with no color at all is that it is unisex; both men and women can use the design. However, just adding a little bit of color to it, maybe just to outline it would make a huge difference in the appearance and the beauty of the tattoo.
One of these designs is a blue dragon in an upright flying position, with a green underside and orange flames all around it. When thinking about whether or not the tattoo is best for males or females, it is really all about the color scheme. With the blue dragon, this is mostly for men because it is fierce and powerful. If the tattoo were different shades of pink than quite obviously no man would be caught dead with that design. It is for a woman to have.

Neck Star Tattoos

2009-09-23T17:34:00.000-07:00

As you know, the star tattoo is very popular these days, my friend said that at least 10 people get star tattoo everyday. This is a nice little neck tattoo. A heart on top of a heart on top of a heart. I’m not sure what it is meant to mean to this person, if anything. The artwork is lower end but good enough for what this neck tattoo is. And of course this tattoo is one of those that few people will ever notice. More of a personal thing. You can search on Google to find more star tattoo inspiration, but I suggest you get tattoo designs from paid websites.

The tattoo has become more and more popular these days, a lot people around me are got gorgeous tattoos! From tribal to star, from butterfly to dragon, really cool! Of course, a lot celebrities are get tattoos. Today we talking about Angelina Jolie's tattoos.

Angelina Jolie is an American actress and Goodwill Ambassador for the UN Refugee Agency. She has received three Golden Globe Awards, two Screen Actors Guild Awards, and an Academy Award.I love Angelina very much.

Angelina's back tattoos has been edited and added to almost as much as her arms, if not moreso. She used to wear the Japanese kanji that translated to "death" on her left shoulder, but that tattoo was covered over with an elaborate Buddhist prayer of protection. It is a Sanskrit blessing in the Cambodian language, and she has said it is to honor her first adopted son Maddox.

Her lower back is the area that has been added to the most. Originally she had two tiny tribal-style designs on either side of her spine and a small dragon. However on a trip to Thailand, she had that work topped by a large tiger design.

How to Tattoo- The process of tattooing

2009-08-17T23:28:00.000-07:00

The art of tattooing is not a difficult task at all. The people who seek to join this profession will know that a little training is all they need and they can become tattoo professionals. The basic technique of tattooing involves a stencil and the gun machines that engrave the tattoo in to the skin with a proper ink. First the customer selects the design that he or she wished to support on their body. Then an outline or a pattern of that design is made. The right body part for the design is selected and the outline of the design is tattooed on that body part using a stencil. For the outlining a gun machine is used which engraves the outline in black ink. Then the lines are filled with colorful ink giving shape to the proper tattoo that the customer wanted to wear.

So the next time you ask yourself ‘how to tattoo?’ just follow the above techniques or search for the detailed process on the internet. But it is to be taken care of that no one should try to tattoo with out any professional guidance as it can be very dangerous. A little training from the professionals is necessary. The art of tattooing involves a good imagination and creativity. It is the talent of those who can think innovatively and come up with new ideas that can catch the attention of all. A tattoo needs to be striking to look at and endearing to one who supports it. The art of tattooing involves talent and is not a cup of tea for every body.

The meaning of Cobra Tattoos:they embodied such women’s characteristics as mysteriousness, intuition and unpredictability. For men a cobra means power and wisdom, but it is also a sign of insidiousness, slyness and darkness. Such tattoo can mean protectiveness over the people whose initials are inked or it can be a tattoo made in loving memory of those who are gone that shows that the tattoo owner will never forget them.

Kanji Tattoos

2009-06-25T01:11:00.000-07:00

When choosing kanji symbols is that they are only one of three writing systems used in Japan --which is where kanji is used (not China). Kanji is the oldest and most complicated of the three writing systems( kanji, hiragana and katakana). The other systems are hiragana and katakana, with katakana being the most familiar to westerners. Why the most familiar? Because katakana is used specifically to write foreign words (and science words and a few other things) and foreign names.Characters can be written both vertically and horizontally. Here are some Kanji Tattoo Symbols pictures.

A lot people choose to get religious symbols, such as the ever popular tribal cross tattoo, tattooed on their body as representations of their faith.

The cross tattoo, is quite simply, a pair of lines that intersect each other at a 90º angle. These lines can be of equal length (forming a plus sign) or of varying lengths, as in the typical Christian cross. Crosses, in all their forms, have been used since ancient times as designations of various religions and other societies.

Butterfly Tattoo Designs:
Tattoos are one of the most popular forms of body arts.Have cool tattoos are trendy enough.
Most of women love butterfly tattoos.
Then, what the meaning of the butterfly tattoo?The butterfly tattoo designs have a variety of meaning. There are some who say that it represents rebirth or transformation. This is solely based upon the fact that a caterpillar changes into a beautiful butterfly hence the tattoo itself signifies the same. It can also symbolize freedom. For some, it’s simply a beautiful pattern, which is delicate, colorful and very pretty!

Amongst the various butterfly tattoo designs, women love flower butterfly tattoos. The combination of this pattern looks simply beautiful! Celtic butterfly tattoos are in demand as well.

Celtic Tattoos Design

2009-03-24T02:08:00.000-07:00

Celtic design tattoos are very much in demand even today, although they have been in use for a long time.

Celtic tattoos have history and symbolism associated with it. Celtic tattoos are easily identifiable because of the kind of colors that can be used as well as the design. Celtic tattoos basically involve certain kind of complex patterns, which are highly stylized. The Celtics are known for their rich culture and heritage and this is also probably one of the reasons one can see a wide number of designs and symbols out here. Their strong beliefs attached to the tattoos increase their popularity as well.

Celtic design tattoos have a reason behind the symbolism associated with it. The Celts in the olden days did not a particular language to communicate via the written word. Therefore, they tried to express themselves through symbolism. Designs that incorporated symbols from nature were thus quite popular as this communicated their love for nature. Therefore, Celtic design tattoos are almost on the same lines as tribal tattoos that have a unique feel about them. They emote a lot without really being direct in the way the design is devised.

These ancient tattoos designs are distinguishable because of the knot work and the spiral patterns. Geometric forms, overlapping of knots, key work and many such intricate patterns form the base of Celtic patterns. The Celtic cross is one of the most popular of all designs. This Celtic cross is like the Christian cross; the only difference being there is a circle around the intersection. There is also a lot of intricate knot work that is seen over the cross. Many have tried to interpret the meaning of the design of the Celtic cross. For the Christians, it is a symbol of God’s love where as, for the neo pagans, it represents the sun.

Celtic knots are yet another popular design which is in demand with tattoo lovers. Celtic knots consist of endless loop work that intertwines all through the design. It is really difficult to figure out the pattern at times. The complexity of the design is what makes it even more popular! The symbolism behind this Celtic tattoo is probably because the Celts considered this to be a representation of constant life. By Kashmira Lad

Tattoo experience: My first tattoo - the Shrike

2009-02-09T21:05:00.000-08:00

Author tonid -tonid@bme.anon
It took me quite a long time to reach the right decision. But finally I did it.
It all started somewhere around 1998. My girlfriend (now ex-girlfriend but still one of my best friends), got her first tattoo. It was a miniscule black panther on her shoulder. The same year she got a floral design on her arm, and a similar one on her lower back. All three tattoos were done by the same beginner artist, and were actually quite terrible. The ink quality made them grey out within a year or so, and they simply looked like an amateur's work.

Luckily, in late 1999 or early 2000, we discovered Artur Szolc. A friend of mine from work got a tattoo, and the quality was excellent. I asked her who made it, and she gave me Artur's phone number. So my girlfriend decided to get her tattoos corrected by Artur. When I saw his work, I knew one thing. If I was ever to get a tattoo, it would have to be made by him, nobody else. But I was still very far from making such a decision. Especially since I had no idea what I wanted to have tattooed.

Within the next couple of years, my girlfriend got her tattoos extended (now she's got one all over her back), and about a dozen of my friends, neighbors, colleagues etc. decided to get tattooed (by Artur, of course). But I was still uncertain as to the subject of my future tattoo. My first ideas were related to my zodiac sign (Capricorn), in a tribal form. Then I thought of a realistic dwarf miner (since I first read LOTR, I was fascinated with the dwarfs). But the true inspiration came in late 2006. There was no planning, there was no reason why it came. I simply one day thought about it, and then knew that was perfect for me. The Shrike.

I first read the Hyperion Cantos in 2001 or 2002 I believe. I was instantly in love with this science-fiction series. It was way better than anything I have ever read in the past. I absolutely loved the whole universe portrayed, all the characters, everything. I still do. I found myself a lot like Raul Endymion. But why choose the evil Shrike to be the subject my tattoo? Well, it would be difficult to explain without spoiling the story, and the readers might not like that. Enough to say, that the Shrike is not as bad as it may seem. It symbolizes pain induced in order to awaken empathy. And when that empathy awakens, the Shrike stands its guard. So my personal Shrike is the guard of my personal empathy.

Even though in late 2006 I already knew, that if I was to get a tattoo, it would be the Shrike, and it would be made by Artur Szolc, I still didn't make up my mind. But one summer afternoon in 2008, I took a nap, then I woke up, simply picked up the phone and called Artur to arrange an appointment (with the earliest possible date ?January 2009). Just like that.

And so, on January 19, 2008 I got my first tattoo. I sent Artur excerpts from the book, depicting the Shrike. I asked him to design the Shrike on the basis of only those excerpts, not the drawings one could find on the Web (which, in my opinion, are very inaccurate). Artur decided, that he would rather design it with me present, so the first three hours of my appointment we were drawing, discussing, correcting, until we came up with a design that I was satisfied with. Then it took Artur only about an hour and a half to complete the Shrike's head. We decided to leave the rest for the next session, since this was my first tattoo.

The experience itself was much less painful than I expected. I was a bit scared, since one of my friends actually fainted when he was getting his first tattoo. I found the pain completely bearable, it was more irritating than painful, and I almost fell asleep when Artur was working. I found out that the less I tense my muscles, the less pain I feel. The healing period afterwards was short. After about 2 days the epidermis peeled off. After about 4 days there was some itching, but it was bearable. Within a week the tattoo seems completely healed.

The remaining part of the Shrike shall be tattooed probably in late March 2009 (at the latest). The Shrike's upped body will cover my whole arm, with two of its four arms encircling that arm, and the remaining two spread wide, down below my elbow and above my shoulder, ripping the skin. We may also add a background: the Shrike's Tree of Thorns.

Free Tribal dragon tattoos designs

Tribal dragon tattoos are always in demand because of the design and form. These can symbolize different meanings, which would also depend upon the form used. As per the old folk tales, the kings used the dragons to guard the treasures; which were hidden in the caves. It was also rumored that only those who could overpower the dragons could obviously claim the treasures. This sometimes even posed a problem to the kings as well! The kings also found it difficult to access their treasure with these dragons around. Dragons are also known to symbolize the 4 elements-Air, water, earth and fire. Warriors in the Roman and Greek empires used the dragon as a symbol of terror. Fires breathing dragons or basic tribal dragon tattoo designs are used to denote magic, nobility, loyalty, power and are used by people who wish to portray themselves beyond the ordinary.
