Ancient Greek Tattoos

Are you looking for a great Greek Tattoo? One of the best ways to get an awesome design is to do some research on your own and learning a little about the ancient Greek tattoos is a great way to start.

Ancient Greek tattoos, or "stigmata" as they were called back then, were used in many different forms. They were originally used as a way to mark someone as "belonging" to a particular group or segment of society. For example, they were frequently used as a punishment for criminals. This was a way to inflict pain and mark them as criminals so the rest of the population would be able to identify them.

People were tattooed with a distinct design if they belonged to a certain religious sect. Others marked their slaves with unique designs, a branding used as a form of ownership. Ancient Greek tattoos were also used as a form of communication amongst spies, a way to show their rank and their roll in the organization.

Tattoos gradually became more of a form of self-expression. Early designs included the Greek cross, a cross with four equal arms that eventually became the "+" sign in mathematics. The architectural design border of the Greek key became popular and were used as wristbands, armbands, and ankle bands. This design is now commonly known as a sign of the circle of life.

A fun form of tattooing was an expression of phrases using their alphabet symbols. A popular phrase still used today is "Pistis, elpis, agape" which means "Faith, hope, love". One of the most spectacular and extravagant forms of expression was the use of the gods, goddesses, and stories of Greek Mythology. Still ever popular, Greek mythology designs make the most stunning tattoos around.

Ancient Greek Tattoos are still widely used in today's designs. Finding the right Greek tattoo specific to you and your personality can take a little work on your behalf.

About 25% of people who get tattoos are not happy with the outcome. Don't let that happen to you. Research Ancient Greek Tattoos, download designs that you like, and print them out to view.

It's better to have your design idea in your hand when you walk into the parlor than to try and figure it out once you're there. To get more design ideas and awesome printable designs visit http://www.squidoo.com/Greek-Tattoo.

Beautiful Tattoo Ideas of Girls

Beautiful Tattoo Ideas of Girls: Many designs and images are yet to be discovered. The only medium that can provide an extreme head-to-toe makeover for a person is tattooing.The experience is much like repainting a car, except that tattoos are much more specifically targeted per area on the body.

Examples of the most prominent (tattoos) designs available for girls are remarkable in the quality of their artistic expression.

Of the best designs that have a place in tattoo culture, some of the more popular images are butterflies in motion, a female figure seeming to emerge from the hand, celebrities such as Marilyn Monroe flying while holding a heart-shaped balloon, a fire-breathing belly button dragon, and a clawing tiger on the arm.

These are all worthwhile images. Even more samples seen are a Celtic design on the belly, Biblical passages on the back or leg, a tablet of Egyptian hieroglyphics, or even a treasure map, which can be a bit of clever fun for a girl. In addition, others that have made the ink scene include Buddha laughing, roses, supergirls, angels, fairies, Zodiac signs, shooting stars, Chinese characters, and dolphins on a girl's body.

The optimal signs are those like devil wings, flowing blood, and faux broken ribs. Other commonalities, once reserved for men, are the classic biker tats: Death and demons, barbed wire, evil babies, wizardry symbols, and eagles. The location of a tattoo on a girl retains a lot of meaning. An image on the lower back, for instance, can help accentuate a girl's curves, while others can add to her glamor or provide an erotic quality.

One popular idea is to utilize a tattoo to cover a scar! Tattoos have become remarkably attractive and creative, some even managing to be provocative. Whatever the case may be, a proper image in ink can enhance the image of a girl.

Tribal Tattoo - Perfect Tattoo Designs

Tribal tattoo designs are one of the most famous and most successful tattoo designs since hundreds of years. Lower back tattoo designs are becoming increasingly popular among the females. Celtic tattoo designs are based on patterns that are thousands of years old and represent the pride and heart of the Celtic people.

Star tattoo designs are extremely popular and as such have come to symbolize a different cultural, social and religious meaning for many millions of people. Feminine tattoo designs are becoming a huge hit with women.

Bird tattoo designs are tied to some of the most profound meanings in the tattoo world.

Take care when choosing the tattoo layout because you will have to live with it all your life. It is suggested to think very carefully before choosing to tattoo a name onto your body. Safe bets are the names of your children. They will always be your children. After making the decision to get a tattoo is to look at as many different tattoo layout styles as possible. Whatever you select, its up to you and your individual style is. Along with accuracy you want a design that matches your personality and style with just the right look and feel.

It is important before starting the actual tattoo to spend some time thinking about the designs, styles and types of tattoo images you would like to get. One of the best places to look for the perfect tattoo designs is Chopper Tattoo.

The Great Symbol Of Chinese Culture - Dragon Tattoos

Dragons have been also termed as a symbol of Earth, Water, Underworld and Sky. It is regarded as neither culturally far ranging character whose bad temper is interpreted as neither good nor evil. Even the forces of nature are not regarded as human hearted since they represent the cycle of life and death which is followed by birth and renewal. It is said that natures nurtures and nature destroys and so does the dragon.

One of the common images of dragon resembles some sort of reptilian creature with lizard like features which dominates the image. The dragon tattoo images features the forked tongue which is common to reptilian creatures.

They are regarded as a symbol of mischief, wisdom, good, evil, adventure and strength. The type of images that are chosen depends upon the personal choice of the person which several men choosing tattoo designs that are either red or green and several women choosing tattoo designs which are either blue, purple or pink in color. The colors are as important as the design of the dragon tattoos.

If you consider the Chinese mythology then dragon tattoos are regarded as ancestors of the Chinese people since these creatures were symbols of supernatural and imperial power.

Fire spitting dragons have been associated with lightning water dragons which were regarded as guardians of lakes, streams, rivers and individual pools. Chinese and Japanese folk stories are filled with stories of creatures with special quests at the end of their journeys which were transformed into dragons but the fact is that dragons have grown out of human imagination.

In the end.. it's all about a paper..

The first year in Turin has finished. and here is the reality, after 9 months ( more or less)

i've got good notes, with an overall score of 28... :) superating the minimal score of 26 for getting an scolarship.

But that doesn't matters... anyways the school didn't gave me an scolarship for the next year... :S

so, i'm a bit disappointed about that.

By the way, i'm in Germany, to be specific in a town near Frankfurt, as an intern in the design studio of a very nice company called EDAG, http://www.edag.de/

And im happy, is an amazing place to be, before going back to Mexico.

Christian Cross Tattoos

A great variety of Christian symbols have been turned into tattoo images, none more so than the cross. Christian cross tattoos portraying a variety of the cross are always abundant; after all, this is the most appropriate and most familiar Christian image of all.

Some cross tattoos show Jesus on the cross, while others show the cross, often with realistic wood graining, with a crown of thorns hung over one arm. Other cross tattoos consists of crossed nails such as big, rough looking nails like those that were used to hang Jesus on the cross.


Other popular Christian cross tattoo images include the Celtic cross (probably one of the most popular Christian tattoos of all), the Russian cross, and the Egyptian 'ankh', a cross with a circular shape on top, the ancient Egyptian symbol for 'life'.

Besides the cross, there are other Christian images that are often used in Christian cross tattoos. The fish symbol is a great illustration based on assorted biblical references, a stylized fish symbol is frequently used as a symbol of Christ. This is a compact, but quite prominent symbol that lends itself well to tattooing, especially in black.

However, there are also other tattoos that may be gang related such as the Hispanic Christian Cross Tattoos.

They are an interesting sub-group. If you know anything about their traditions, you won't be too surprised to learn that most Mexicans and other Hispanic people, even though they are involved in gangs or other criminal activities, are deeply religious and rely on their Christian symbols to both identify and protect them.

These Christian cross tattoos are rather complex, many involve a tattooed image of a saint, Jesus, or the Virgin Mary. Hispanic tattoos often have words, as well, usually a Bible verse, perhaps accompanied by a loved one's name. Many Mexican gang members have multiple sophisticated tattoos, allowing the individual to literally wear his identity and emotions on his skin, if not his sleeve!

Brilliant and Beautiful : Comic Book Tattoo Tales Inspired

Over 80 of the best creators from every style and genre have contributed over 50 stories to this anthology featuring tales inspired by the songs of multi-platinum recording artist, Tori Amos! Featuring an introduction by Neil Gaiman and an extensive roster of talent, Comic Book Tattoo encapsulates the breadth, depth, and beauty of modern comics in this coffee table format book.

I hesitated to buy this book at first. I've sort of fallen away from my rabid Tori Amos obsession, but, I was curious about all the hype and press it's getting (in the Tori community) and found a copy on E-Bay.

It's stunningly beautiful. I admit, like many of Tori's songs, the message in some of the comics is a bit cryptic. Many of them are obtuse in their words, but gorgeous in their artwork. Some of them are silly in their artwork, but amazing in their story. Any way you slice it or dice it, this is a gorgeous optical orgy.

It's hard to not have the songs playing in your head while you're reading the book. I'm hoping they do another volume in the future because there are so many other songs that could be illustrated. Whether you love or hate Tori, you should pick up this book for the amazing artwork and the obvious love and attention they gave to her songs and her muse.

Easy Application TATTOO KIT FAIR/MED

TATTOO KIT - Maybe it's because I'm good with makeup or lucked out having the right skin tone but it WORKED. Just follow the directions. It's simple! The product alone isn't going to magically cover your tattoo. You have to use the right technique, and they give you clear instructions.

Use some common sense, if you need to apply more, do so. Apply around the tattoo too.. and BLEND that area.. ON the tattoo it needs to be cakey, but the powdery stuff will keep it in place. If it's not exactly the right color you can add some colored powder you already have to adjust.

I used this on a BLACK tattoo on my wrist for my friend's wedding and it was amazing.. if you look close you can see there is some different texture to the area, but in pictures it looked like there was no difference to the area at all. I had a ribbon type thing I made to wear at the reception in case it ended up fading, but it lasted.

Covermark, the most trusted name in concealment cosmetics, offers the best way to temporarily and completely hide tattoos. Tames even the deepest, darkest design. Kit offers everything you need to tame tattoos, quickly, easily, painlessly, without anyone detecting they are there.

Most Beautfiul Form of Body Art - Tattoo Designs

If you are serious about getting your skin imprinted with a permanent tattoo, it is important that you select just the right kind of tattoo design for yourself, one that fulfills the following very important requirements.

The tattoos design that you select should be - exactly and only - the one that you were looking for. See that you do not compromise on the shape, size and pattern of the tattoo design, due to any reason at all, for then you are bound to regret getting it done in the first place.


Apart from the pattern of the tattoo design, the colors and hues that you want your tattoo to display should also be the ones of your choice, and preferably ones that suit your skin tone.

It is extremely important that you remember the main reason behind getting the tattoo, and hence, also see that the tattoo design you select portrays the emotions behind it correctly. If it is for mere fashion, you could choose a trendy tribal tattoo design, or a symbolic and stunningly exquisite butterfly tattoo design.

Other than the requirements of the tattoo design that you choose, there are some that you as a purchaser need to consider, while looking for the perfect one. Here are the steps that you need to follow:

First, see that you look through all the available tattoo designs based on your chosen concept, present in various galleries on the internet, or with professional tattoo artists, and only then make your choice. If you want to bear a unique tattoo design, you could ask an artist to create one for you. Also keep in mind where exactly you you’re your tattoo to be situated on your body, and pick accordingly. Remember to keep the budget in mind too.

Next, you ought to find just the right tattoo artist, who will imprint the design onto your skin. You need to be careful while choosing one; see that he or she is a legitimate and expert flash artist.

Make sure that the needles and instruments used by the artist are sterile, you don’t want to end up with any kind of troubles due to it.

Once you have had your spectacular flash art inked into your skin, you will be ready to show it off to jealous viewers, and look gorgeous altogether. However, do remember to be absolutely certain that you want the tattoo, first of all, and also of the design that you select, for the simple reason that if you regret it later, the process of removal will not only be painful, but also very expensive. So choose wisely.
