Creative Large Flag

Can anyone help with a tattoo design idea?

I’m terrible at drawing and not super creative, unfortunately. I was wondering if anyone had some ideas, links to pictures, etc. that could help me design an original tattoo incorporating something Canadian (obviously there’s the maple leaf, but if you have other ideas I’d love to hear them!) along with a rose. I’d like to try and avoid the Canadian flag and I don’t want something cheesy looking. I’d also like it to be fairly small though I’m not opposed to larger designs.

I would suggest first researching good tattooists in your area. Once you have found the best one (be aware that the best usually have extremely long waiting periods) discuss what you would like with them and get them to design something for you.

In the meantime I would start searching the net and finding examples of photos or images or roses (the one part you are sure that you want). The more information you can take the tattoo parlour the better.

Essentially this is part of the tattooist job and you’ll find that a good tattooist can usually create a unique design based around what you want. You can also ask to look at similar tattoos that the tattooist has already done and get inspirations from there.

The most important thing I can recommend is, if this is a very important to you, to wait for the best and not rush into it until you are totally happy with the design and the artist you are working with.
