Stoic tattoo made from a famous quote by Markus Aurelius
Tattoo Design Brief
I would like to have a tattoo of one of the famous quotes from Marcus Aurelius.
"Ἀτύφως μὲν λαβεῖν, εὐλύτως δὲ ἀφεῖναι."
This is translated to "Receive without pride, let go without attachment."
The initial idea that I had is as follows :
The tattoo will have two parts - for the two parts of the quote.
The first part will be an open hand palms up, parallel to the groud receiving sand.
Below it the words "Ἀτύφως μὲν λαβεῖν" will be written below it in some cool fond.
The second part will be a hand palms down releasing sand.
Below it the words "Eὐλύτως δὲ ἀφεῖναι" will be written in some cool fond.
The location will be on the left and right side of the torso on the obliques.
I am thinking the color should be something simple - like black pencil style - maybe the sand can be golden. For the background I have no clear concept - but something simple, most probably.
I attach below the image gemini produce as an initial idea. Obviously is far from the goal, I attach it as a addition to the description above.
I am also open to other ideas that would convey the same message.
