Ornaments tattoos

Ornamental tattoos are most often chosen by women. This style of tattoo is gaining popularity very quickly because it looks beautiful on the body, has an artistic and sensual touch and adds mystery to a woman. In combination with geometric and mandala patterns, ornaments give an amazing effect.

Ornamental tattoos are divided depending on the execution and character of the chosen style. Henna tattoos, which came to us from India, the Arabian Peninsula and North Africa, are a popular inspiration. This art of body painting is supposed to bring happiness and joy and protect against evil powers. Another style, like the popular Buddhist-inspired mandalas, is characterized by soft, symmetrical lines and soft shadows. Celtic tattoos, on the other hand, are distinguished by deep black and thick outlines that symbolize strength, wisdom and longevity.

Ornamental tattoos work great when you don't care about the deeper symbolism of the tattoo, and it is supposed to be a beautiful body decoration. Unlike traditional tribal or heavy blackwork designs, ornament tattoos are more complex in design, refined and energetic. An ornamental style such as Celtic or Polynesian that uses a lot of black is great for covering up already done tattoos.

The most important principle in the ornamental style is symmetry. This is a characteristic where the elements are evenly spaced and reflect mirror or axial symmetry. The symmetrical pattern stands for balance and harmony. Symmetry in ornaments can be done in different ways. This can be axial symmetry, where the pattern is mirrored either vertically or horizontally, creating the appearance of a mirror image. Another type of symmetry is radial symmetry, where the pattern radiates from a central point, creating the effect of radial arrangement of elements. Sometimes, for contrast, symmetry can be broken or modified to add surprise and originality to the tattoo.

An ornamental tattoo can be made in various styles, from minimalist lines to complex compositions. The most important thing, however, is that it is precisely made. Tattoo motifs can be different and you can combine several motifs in one tattoo. You can often find combinations of geometry with jewelry, animals or flowers. You can also meet a combination with marine motifs.

Ornaments can be made on different parts of the body, and the choice depends on the preferences of the person who will wear it. Due to the distinctive features of this style, certain areas of the body may be better suited for ornamental tattoos. One popular place for such tattoos is the forearms, where geometric patterns and fine lines can be exposed. The back and chest are also a good choice - there is a lot of space for complex compositions. Other parts of the body, such as the thigh, calf or hand, too. They fit well in this style, but remember to keep the proportions and that the design takes into account the natural curves.

It is important to consult an experienced tattoo artist who will help you match the design to a specific part of the body and create a harmonious composition. If you're looking for a good tattoo artist, check out the artists and get inspired at INKsearch.co.
