If you’re thinking of getting an angel wing tattoo design, then you may be a little overwhelmed about how much choice you have! In this article, we are going to take a closer look at some of the main styles, designs and ideas that are available to you if you’re seeking an angel wing design. So let’s get started!
Angel wing tattoos are perhaps one of the one striking designs you can have. The most popular design is to have two large wings, which start at your should blade, and flow down towards your lower back.
Often, these designs will feature a “halo effect” in the middle of your back, at the very top part of each wing. Alternatively, the wings may be joined across the top of your back.
Commonly, the designs are simply colored in black, and occasionally have other colors to provide shading and detail. It’s important to note that angel wings usually require a lot of fine line work to define each individual feather. This can mean a long time sat in the chair of your tattoo artist. These sessions will often be broken up, so you can have a few days rest in between each stage of the tattoo.
It’s quite rare to have angel wing designs placed anywhere other than the back, although you can often find smaller designs, which are more suitable for other areas – such as the wrist, or the side of the abdomen. You can also find smaller designs which feature only one wing, and are positioned on just one shoulder blade.
Finally, you can find designs which have room for a name or initials to be placed in between each wing. This is ideal if you want a tattoo which can incorporate your lovers initials, or the name of an important loved one – such as a mother, or a child.
