Predator and flowerIt is one of the oldest combinations in tattoo work and it survives because it does two things at once.The rose softens the edge where the design meets bare skin, so the piece sits on the body rather than looking stamped onto it. And the contrast makes the wolf read as stronger, not weaker: a hard subject beside a soft one gains from the comparison.Take the flower away and you have an animal floating on an arm. Keep it and you have a composition.It also changes what it saysA bare wolf's head reads as aggression to most people, whatever was intended. The same head with a rose reads closer to reverence, which is a different thing to wear and often the thing people actually meant.Small and uprightAt 5.1 x 8.2 cm this is one of the smaller designs we carry, which opens up the placements most designs cannot use: an inner wrist, an ankle, a collarbone, behind an ear.Small designs also last well, since there is less edge to catch and less skin movement across them.See our top wolf tattoos for women and the wolf temporary tattoo range.Free worldwide shipping, 7 to 12 business days. 30 day returns.
