Love It 3

This is a very popular tattoo design and the reason due to its popularity is the presence of a combination of two favorite design creatures in a single tattoo. This combination is loved by a lot of people not only due to the amazing look it has to be viewed as a tattoo but also due to the symbolism it carries for the people. The dragon symbolizes masculinity while the Phoenix is a symbol of steadiness. Dragon and Phoenix are often related with each other and both of them are related with the sun god due to their association with fire. There is one other element that can be added with this tattoo design and that is fire which is a major element in both of the creatures’ lives. When choosing to add fire in the design, it would be better to let the two creatures appear in their natural colors which are the colorful Phoenix and green and other colors in the dragon. This is to reduce the monotone of colors in the tattoo. This tattoo symbioses the force we need to balance between the opposite forces that reside within us. You can also choose the Phoenix to be red and yellow in color which is like a flame and the Dragon to be of natural color. This tattoo needs a comparatively large surface area and hence it is heavily carried at the upper back part or sometimes the whole back is covered depending on the size you choose to ink.
