Update hip tattoo or create one to complement it on other hip!

Summary:

I would love something conveying nature and motherhood - greenery and original and unusual design.

Description:

I have an old tattoo on my hip of a Yin Yang with a splash of water. I would love this to either be updated or to have something of a similar size to complement it and go on the opposite hip.

As a theme, I would love something to celebrate my son whose name begins with a B - something that suggests mother and child with out being religious. I love the idea of having some greenery, something natural/nature. And although it is a cliche, I do love butterflies, though this is by no means a requirement. I would like the size to be about 3"x3" or so.

Additional Details:

• Gender: Female
• Size: 3 x 3 inches
• Detail: High
• Winning artist must provide stencil / line work at completion of contest

I'm going to try and upload a couple more images to give you all inspiration and maybe a clearer idea of what I'm on about!

Here is a link to Flickr with three images of designs by other artists -http://www.flickr.com/photos/sophierudd/

you can see the style I'm after. I HUGELY like the celtic motherhood knot design that has been made out of leaves, vines and flowers and things that were significant to the subject of the design. If this could be adapted to include a small butterfly or even two and if the stargazer lily at  the middle could be made into something else, perhaps a few more of the other flowers, perhaps a cluster of daisies or a small open rose or something else entirely. The small creature at the bottom could be left off entirely, or be a tiny marmoset, just a face or the whole thing.

I hope this gives you all a better idea of what I'm after? Good luck!

Dear all artists,

you have all done some really beautiful work, so the stars I have given are not about how good the designs are, just how close they are to what I'm after!

Here is a link once more to some more images that are very close to what I'm thinking of:

You can see the style I'm thinking of, very delicate, feminine, organic and as detailed as possible for the size. Lots of delicate vines and leaves, perhaps with some paisley-style detailing, all creating the motherhood image that you perhaps wouldn't notice at first look. Perhaps also subtly incorporating an Om (see images), a small butterfly, a small letter B - but subtly, you'd have to look for them. The main focus is not those things, but the subtle suggestion of an image of mother and child.

The picture of the mother and child I think is really beautiful, perhaps that could be adapted so that the faces were less obvious and the hair became vines and greenery, or the greenery could create that image?

I hope I have been a little clearer, thank you for working with me on this, please ask me any questions to make it clearer still!
