One of the most beautiful and elegant of Natures creations leaves are truly unique. Pick up a leaf and look at it, and you find no leaf even from the same tree is exactly a replica of another one. Individual and shaped with pretty patterns leaves tell the story of birth and death, and how to be graceful even when it is the Fall. Leaves are beautiful in all seasons, from spring to autumn, and Leaf Tattoos celebrate the many patterns, colors, and meanings of leaves.
The best part about a leaf ink design is that it can be as big or as tiny as you want, so your shoulder, or your foot can be the site of a tiny leaf design. You can also have a patterned green leaf inked on your arm, or have a design combining many red leaves during the Fall trailing down your forearm. Many leaves burst into colors like red, shades of brown, and golden during the Fall, so tattoos depict these gorgeous colors of leaves. You can also see many tattoos that depict the Canadian national symbol, the pretty maple leaf in shades of red and brown. The four-leaf clover is supposed to be very lucky so it also forms the theme of many beautiful designs. The stalks and veins inked in rich detail bring out the realistic look of leaf ink tattoos. The brown of dried leaves and the fresh green of young leaves both have their own beauty, so tattoo ideas may combine both the new and old states of a leaf into a single design. You also the vivid green of leaves coming into play in tattoo designs, with a touch of golden adding a rich beauty. The holes of leaves also have a creative expression that is all their own, so a neat love tattoo theme may show a leaf with a heart shaped hole as a part of the design.
