The only thing to bear in mind with watercolor tattoos, however, is that although they look amazing at first, the color can fade quite quickly. This means the tattoo might not look as fresh and eye-catching a few years after it’s inked. However, you can counteract the fading by getting frequent top-ups. Although, this can get expensive and prove to be quite a pricey investment in the long run.

Owl and Roses Tattoo

Roses are staples in the tattoo community. For this reason, they go well with pretty much everything, including owls. Roses add an element of romance, mystery, and elegance to any tattoo design, so can be perfect for those getting inked to show their love and dedication for someone else. When done in color, the red of the rose can complement the shading of the owl’s plumage nicely too.

Owl in Flight Tattoo

Most depictions of owls focus on them in a still position. However, showing an owl in flight can create an interesting look. With the wings extended, the tattoo can draw more attention to the feathers, and the stance overall gives off more power and strength. The in-flight depiction can also reflect the idea of freedom, which is always an attractive choice when it comes to body art.

Owl with Colored Eyes Tattoo

While it’s very common to tattoo owls in black and white, it’s still very popular to add a pop of color in the eye area. This draws attention to the central reason owls are associated with wisdom: their ability to see in the dark and therefore perceive things that others don’t. It can also make a nice colourful centre point for the tattoo, drawing people to the design.
