Tattoo help needed

I'm going to get a tattoo in memory of my son. Originally I was just going to get his name on my wrist (and my other ds on my other wrist).

Now I'm feeling like I want more of a part of him with me. I have his hand and footprint. I was thinking about incorporating one of those somehow.

Any creative ideas out there?

My friend recently got a beautiful tattoo. She designed it herself. It was a butterfly in black with her kids handprints in color hidden in the butterfly wings. Maybe you can do something similar with angel wngs.

I think so too! Maybe using his footprint as the center (or body) and putting angel wings on either side..

I don't have any different ideas to share but I wouldn't worry so much about not being able to draw. As long as you can convey what you would like done and bring pictures of images you like, the tattoo artist will draw up the tattoo for you.
