Feminine tattoo full of symbolic images: lotuses, wheel of karma/fortune, tree of life, pheonix, sankofa, trident...
The images I would like included in the tattoo are;
Lotus flowers &/or a triquetra flower shown in attached image (if coloured at least one red and one blue)
The tree of life (or a branch of the tree of life as I do not want the tattoo to be too big nor too detailed)
Phoenix
Sankofa bird (not necessary but would prefer to also sankofa heart symbol too, or the heart symbol if you don't want to put the bird in)
Trident
Wheel of fortune/karma (not necessary but preferred)
The tattoo is going to be a hip tattoo, I want it to start at the front of my body where my hip bone pokes out and then curve up around my hip, in line with the natural form of my body.. I don't want it to be very big I would say at most 20x10cms (length x width).
I’m know that I want a lot of images in the tattoo and I want it small but not detailed which makes it a bit difficult, but I think a way of getting around that is with simple designs, abstract even, but not tribal because I don’t really like tribal tattoos.
I don't want the design to be too detailed or intricate because I don’t want it to shrink with time, or the lines to get too close with time. For this same reason I would prefer for it to go from the bone on the front at the side around my hip so that none of the image is really on my stomach at the front. I don’t mind if it gets high around my side but I’d prefer the part that is on my front, near the hip bone, not to be very high, only maybe 5cms.
I like coloured tattoos but i also like plain black ones, so I am undecided on which I would prefer. I suppose it depends on the design. If you do colours, i like bright, strong colours like lime green, purple, blue, pink, red etc and I would like the tree/branch and the trident to just be plain black and feminine – so curls, decoration etc. The trident itself can even be hidden in the tree branch, or part of the tree branch if that is easier.
Attached are only ideas of designs/colours/images that are similar to what I’m after or have something about them that I like. The images of the birds, flowers and the wheel of karma/fortune are similar to the exact images that I’m interested in but the images are there more than anything to give you an idea of what styles, designs and colours I like. I think the attached images are also too detailed for the size of the tattoo I would like, which is why I think a more simplified version or an abstract take on them may be better.
If you think you have a good idea that I would like and it is different to the images I’ve put here feel free to submit it.
In the end I want the tattoo to look like a simple, feminine artistic scene/piece.

Lotus flowers &/or a triquetra flower shown in attached image (if coloured at least one red and one blue)
The tree of life (or a branch of the tree of life, or a vine, as I do not want the tattoo to be too big nor too detailed)
Phoenix
Sankofa bird (not necessary but would prefer to also sankofa heart symbol too, or the heart symbol if you don't want to put the bird in)
Trident
Wheel of fortune/karma (like the Dharmacakra flagr. It's not an essential image for the tattoo but preferred)

I have a rough idea of how want the design. I kind of picture the tree of life like a branch or vine wrapped around the wheel of karma/life. Then the vine travels from the bottom of my hip bone up around my hips. Then at the bottom of the vine i would like the sankofa bird with possibly the flowers in its mouth and at the top of the vine the pheonix, again maybe with flowers in its mouth or around it on the vine.

I thought it was really cool and wanted to share :)
I was just wondering if there is anyway I can improve the tat patterns I've submitted.
