It’s no sᴇᴄʀᴇᴛ that we love tattoos: small tattoos, inner ear tattoos, wrist tattoos, the works. We’ve seen a lot of them—and watercolor tattoos are some of our absolute favorites. The bright colors, intricate details, and lighthearted designs make these works of art we never knew we needed.
What makes watercolor tattoos particularly special is that there are so many different ways to decorate your body. Think adding washes of blue and purple as a backdrop to a delicate design (like these cool celebrity tattoos), bringing out the beauty in flower tattoos, or going the abstract route with a bursting swipe of colors. Scroll on for our favorite watercolor tattoo ideas, plus everything you need to know before you ink up.
