In many a tattoo design you will find that clouds are important elements that play a supporting role but not the main design element. You will rarely see clouds being used as the main design element in a tattoo. You will also notice that most of the cloud tattoos you do see, are done mostly in black with very few exceptions and these too in darker colors only.
Clouds are part of the sky which makes part of the heavenly or spiritual realm. They can be really awesome inspiring to watch and it makes sense to view them as being something that represents the spirituality. Here are some cloud tattoo designs that you could consider.
Suns rays along with cloud tattoo: The sun shining through the clouds is something that fills us with joy every time we behold the sight. When done with proper care and attention to detail, this can make an awesome tattoo design.
The sun above the clouds: Once again, you see a joyful sight that also can be a stunning visual for a tattoo. Think about it, the darkness of the clouds contrasting with the golden yellow of the sun.
Cloud tattoo with an eye that sees it all: When we think of something above us, we feel that it can see all. That is what this cloud tattoo is all about. This must elevate you provided this kind of feeling does not scare you or put you off.
Lightning along with a black cloud tattoo: Lightning sparkling through the dark clouds is the stuff that fascinated us during the childhood and let us confess it can still do it. If you get the whole effect well done, it is a great tattoo design. You need to take care that the artist represents the cloud well to prevent it from looking like a blackish lump.
Cloud tattoo with red heart: This one seems like you have your heart in the clouds. It goes without saying that the meaning of such a tattoo will be different for different people. You can make it look as if you are elated by adding happy elements or make it look melancholy by adding elements like barbed wire.
Blue Cloud Tattoo: This one can be really unusual and the way it will look, will depend on how you get it done. You have to discuss it with the tattoo artist to make sure that the end result looks suitably ethereal. You can add a light like effect by making it look like the sun is trying to burst through the clouds.
Cherub crying on the cloud: Since clouds are normally used to provide a background for other design elements, showing an angel on the cloud can really work. The sense that the person who has gotten it has lost something precious or suffered a major loss can be shown through the weeping of the angel.
Blue cherub sitting on the cloud: We see clouds as part of the heavens, taking the theme further, we can add an angel who is just sitting there, playing or just looking down on us, the mere mortals. It feels like both a blessing, as well as, somebody who keeps an eye on us.
Cloud with cross tattoo: This one is directly representing your belief in the heavenly father with the cross element. A person who wants to show his spirituality and beliefs, will find a lot of comfort from this tattoo.
When you consider the above given cloud tattoo examples, you can understand the appeal that clouds have in the tattoo design world. As you can see with some thought and imagination they can also be used as stand-alone design elements. These examples of Cloud Tattoo may help you:
