Common motifs include the evil eye, shields, guardian animals, and amulets. This guide covers style, placement, and practical design choices for evil eye symbols.

Watercolor tattoos use soft color gradients and flowing edges that mimic paint on paper. The technique avoids heavy outlines, letting colors blend naturally into the skin for a light, artistic appearance.

The upper arm is a classic tattoo placement with enough space for medium to large designs. It's easy to cover with a short sleeve and serves as a natural starting point for a half or full sleeve.
