The angel is an enduring figure in stories and legends, across the world. Depicted with a pair of large wings and a lithe form, you often see the angel in beautiful tattoo designs. An angel expresses the desire of humans for liberty and strength, and tattoos depict this through finely inked designs and rich art. The world of tattoo art depicts the angel in different forms, expressing various ideas. Fantasy, religion, goodness, fighting the battles of life, and protection are some common themes of angel tattoos.
Many angels are inspired by Christian legends, and show the angel in a praying posture. Often, the angel holds a necklace of beads, and has a halo around the head. You also find angels holding a sword above the head or engaged in fighting, in warrior angel tattoo designs. Many tattoos combine the world of Nature with the pretty angel designs. Butterfly wings add to the beauty of an angel, as she holds a bouquet of flowers. Muscular male angels, and curvy-bodied female angels, express the shades of fantasy.
