20 Mesmerizing Water Tattoo Ideas For Tranquility On Skin

👇

First of all, water is a symbol of life and a thing we can’t live without. It’s free to move however it wants which is why people often use it to represent freedom. The best thing about getting a water tattoo is that you can play with its design, shape, and placement.

We all depend on water but some of us are serious about it for many different reasons. If you’re a person who’s aware of its importance and thankful for its presence, then you’ll love the following designs. They will bring a dash of calamity onto your skin.

1. Heart of waves

When in liquid form, water has no shape. And when you’re getting a tattoo of it, this allows you to play with the design. One idea is to get heart-shaped waves that show your love for this priceless gift of nature.

2. The shape of water

This is another way you can introduce the fluidity of water into your design. This black and gray tattoo will fit perfectly on your back, but of course, you can place it on any other part of your body since it’s easily adjustable.

3. Feel the water

We love this idea as it allows you to get in touch with water. We all know how amazing it feels to place your hand into the river and let your fingers dance with the moving water. Well, this tattoo embraces that feeling perfectly.

4. A drop of water

If you’re into hyperrealistic tattoos then you’re going to love this one. It represents the moment when a drop of water gets in touch with the rest of the liquid.

5. Deep dive

Water tattoos are so versatile when it comes to their design because there are many different ways in which you can represent this liquid mass. So, this is another cool idea how you can play with your design and make it more interesting.

6. Minimalistic water tattoo

If you’re into minimalistic tattoos but would still like to get something with a bit of color, this is the solution you need. A small design such as this one will fit anywhere you want and it will always look great.

7. Black and gray waves

Who says that you have to opt for a colorful design when you’re looking into water tattoos? You can always decide to keep things black and gray if that’s your preferred aesthetic and it’s still going to look amazing.

8. Simple water drop

This simple water drop with a heart shape will embrace the way you feel about water. It’s a source of life and without it, there wouldn’t be us or anything else around us for that matter.

9. A glass of water

When you think of a water tattoo, the first thing that probably comes to your mind is waves. But you can do something completely different and opt for a glass of water for example. We’re sure that not a lot of people have a tattoo like this so if you want to be different this is your shot.

10. Wild waves

Speaking of waves, of course, we had to mention them. And this time, we opted for a vibrant representation of them. You just need to take a look at this tattoo and you can already imagine that you’re on the beach, soaking in the Sun and listening to the sound of the sea touching the shore.

11. Water touching the sand

If you’d like to portray the moment when the sea touches the sand and the water creates those bubbly sounds that make you feel calm, this is how you can do it. We’re obsessed with the combination of colors and the way this artist created the illusion of water on the skin.

12. Outline of the river

Another cool idea is to get an outline of the river and that way, celebrate your love for water. You can always opt for blue ink such as in the picture above or you can keep things simple and go for a traditional black ink.

13. Waves and a quote

We love the idea of making a quote a part of your design since you get the chance to make the tattoo more personal. By adding a quote you like, you instantly get a unique piece of art on your skin.

14. In the water

If portrait-style tattoos are your thing and you love the idea of wearing one on your body, then we recommend this design. It’s edgy and cool and will definitely make people ask questions about it.

15. Water dragon

We’ve already mentioned that you have so many options and ways to play with your water tattoo. One of them is to get a dragon that’s made out of water, and that way, combine two different tattoo meanings into one.

16. Spill the water

This tattoo is a great option for all of the artistic souls out there. A black and gray vase with water spilling out of it is definitely an idea you should consider if you’re into designs such as this one.

17. Geometrical water tattoo

What we love the most about this tattoo is the idea of combining strict, sharp lines that characterize geometrical tattoos with the freedom and fluidity of water. In the end, you get a real show-stopper.

18. Sea creatures

A cool thing about this tattoo is that you can let the design wrap around your arm. That way, you’ll get a body decoration that looks good from each and every angle.

19. Trident tattoo

A trident is a spear that belonged to the sea god and with which he could stir the waters and split rocks. A design such as this one is a fun take on the classical water tattoo and is a perfect option if you love mythology.

20. Abstract water

If abstract tattoos are your thing then you can play with the organic shape of the water and create a design that’s different from everything we’ve already mentioned. For an additional touch, use blue ink and that way, portray the nature of water in the best way possible.
