My first customized tattoo artwork

I only recently decided to find another outlet to market my artwork to others.  The idea is to sell some of my artwork as tattoo designs.  So I was asked to create something for a friend of mine.  She and her husband wanted to having matching tattoos to symbolize their son coming into their lives.  Her husband designed a tattoo for them.  Her request to me was for me to add to the original design to make it more feminine for her. 


Without posting the original design (I do not have permission to do so), I can describe the changes I made in order to make this a more feminine piece for my friend.

The original design has angel wings rather than the butterfly wings I have added.  I kept the same concept intact along with the lettering.  However, I re-designed the omega sign and made it a little more sleek and thinner since this was for a female and it goes better with the butterfly wings.

I have to say this turned out pretty well.  I liked it even better on skin! There is nothing more gratifying than seeing your work appreciated by others.   ;-)
