Minimalist, fine-line, or illustrative.
A tattoo for my left inner-forearm, and not too big (around 8cm). It would be a minimalist black fine-line single-line style, and the main image would be a stylised purple tulip in a similar style to Rennie Mackintosh/art deco. It should incorporate the letter 'A’, but again, stylised, not obvious, and possibly combined with an infinity symbol and/or tiny heart. The tattoo should also incorporate elsewhere a tiny music symbol (an eighth note), a sun and a very hidden semi-colon. I’d like there to be some watercolours under the black line, with purple for the tulip blending into blue, then green for the ‘A’, yellow around the sun – but all blending nicely together. I don’t really want leaves for the tulip – or maybe just one. The eighth note and semi-colon should be organic parts of the single line, not just added on somewhere.
