by today

Mother Nature is the ultimate ink muse.

There’s nothing like the peacefulness of being out in nature. For those who love the outdoors, a nature-inspired tattoo is a great fit for you.

Tattoos of nature can include a wide range of options for those looking to get a new tattoo. From stunning landscapes filled with trees and mountains to your favorite animals or flowers, tattoo lovers have plenty of choices to choose from.

Nature tattoos can be as small and subtle or as large and detailed as you’d like. The sky – pun intended – is the limit.

Although nature tattoos can certainly use just black ink, these types of tattoos are also ideal for people who may prefer more colorful designs. Nature is filled with all sorts of beautiful colors to be inspired by for our tattoo art. A sky can be made even more gorgeous with colors added to it. Want to have some extra specificity to your tattoo art? Add some color to it.

Human beings are said to have a deep connection with nature. When we are feeling down, even just 15 minutes spent outside can leave us feeling happier again. There’s a reason we feel ourselves start to crave some time outdoors.

Sometimes we just need that extra pick-me-up from Mother Nature.

Nature reduces sᴛʀᴇss, improves our physical and mental health, and can improve academic performance.

With such a ᴘᴏsɪᴛɪᴠᴇ connection to our emotions, it makes sense that tattoos of nature would be popular among those looking to get a new tattoo. Not only are they appealing to look at but the images invoke feelings of tranquility and happiness.

Another cool thing about nature tattoos is that they can look great anywhere. Common tattoo locations include the wrist, forearm, bicep, collarbone, shoulder, ankle, and foot. However, hands and fingers are also a popular tattoo trend emerging in 2018.
