The Koi fish represent good luck, longevity, etc. and in each of their tales I got my newly adopted kid's initials ("E" and "S"), the writing in the middle is sanskrit for "mother".
Tattoos are so personal. I would recommend finding a good tattoo artist, researching what you (or DH) wants, and then take pictures to the tattoo artist and have him/her then design you something that is totally unique to you. I came up with the idea for my ankle one and then my friend who is the tattoo artist drew it up from my idea and I LOVE it! Same with my Hibiscus ione. The Hamsa hand I saw something kind of similar on Miami Ink  and then researched and found an even better one online on a tattoo artist's website. I took the pic to my friend who then changed and added what I wanted and it was a thousand times better than anything else I had seen and completely unique to me!
Good luck! |
Butta those are beautiful! I especially like the hand!
