A Swimmer Tattoo

Emma's swimmer tattoo

It’s not often people ask me for artwork they are going to wear for the rest of their lives, so I am delighted to show you this little lady which I designed for Emma Cummings. It was a piece of work which I did last year. The brief was that she liked a line drawing, but also a watercolour-type loose colouring, so I combined the two, refining the line drawing and leaving the colour as a more random effect. Here’s the final effect, which may or may not have more colour added later. Besides, she seems an appropriate colour for an outdoor swimmer this time of year anyway! (even though, as we know well, we actually go bright pink, not blue…)

  1. This tattoo is so simple yet eye-catching. If anyone here who loves to swim yet thinking what type of tattoo will suit him or her, can go for this design. This is the perfect line tattoo and will not pain much. You can do this tattoo style anywhere, on your back, arms, legs and even on the shoulders.
