Watercolor tattoos are all the rage right now - here are a few to get you inspired.
Watercolor painting is among the oldest art techniques we have record of. The method, which involves using paints that are suspended in a water-based solution, is so old that it may actually date back to the oldest European cave paintings, and there are still examples from ancient Egypt. In China, a similar form of ink wash painting became popular during the era of Tang Dynasty art. It was popularized in Europe during the Renaissance.
Watercolor tattoos also involve mixing sterile water into the tattoo ink. The technique involves creating layers of color, and is fairly complex -- for anyone who is interested in getting a watercolor tattoo, make sure to go to an artist who is well versed in this style, and has examples of good watercolor tattoos that look similar to the design chosen.
