Fairies Tattoos

Fairies Tattoos
Fairy tattoos have a nostalgic appeal for those who remember childhood fondly and wish to keep the images of childhood part of their lives on an ongoing basis. In that sense, fairy tattoos are a symbol of our youth.

The fairy is a female mythological figure that has magical powers and originates from Celtic mythology. Usually they are small, beautiful creatures with transparent wings, a green dress and a human appearance.

They live in wonderland and can take people there as well. According to legend, there is little consensus regarding how big fairies were, and how human-like they were in form. The small, Tinkerbell-type fairy is only one interpretation.
She started back in 1992 producing fairy inspired art work. At the time she was working for an Arts Show and kind of stumbled upon painting fairies. However, she found she loved it and has continued to refine her work into the beautiful art form that it is today. She sells a variety of fairy inspired art including everything from prints, to ceramic tiles, to a beautiful calendar. Her work has is featured and for sale on her website and now in many art shops and galleries across the coutnry. She also has a page dedicated to people who have taken her fairy designs and made them into a more permenant form of a tattoo. Amy Brown's Fairy Inspired Tattoo Art. I will feature a few pictures from this gallery below.
