I really want to get a water themed tattoo..waves, ocean stuff kinda like that. But I want a Japanese art style tattoo as well, but I don't want a Koi fish as traditional Japanese water tattoos have. Also I like Sakura flowers and lotus blossoms. Should I find a way to incorporate that together or just keep them seperate to a water themed one and a japanese art style one?

I'd go for a theme. Most artists will like the challenge, and there is enough stuff already out there to get you started. If you can find stuff with elements of what you'd like, the artist can likely take it from there.
I just brought my basic thoughts and a hideous pencil sketch to my artist, and she created my backpiece from that.

You can always do a internet search and find great ideas , and go into a tattoo shop and look at their posters books and albums. You might like something tribal, or a animal that stands for courage and strength , I just got one done yesterday of a Dragon, and it is a full arm tattoo all black and shaded, but you night think is too dark or evil for your taste. Yours will be a rather large tattoo, so it is going to take some time getting it down, it does no sound like this is your first one , so I say go for it .

I have multiple tattoos...I think that you could probably combine some of those ideas into one tattoo because they go together well...go to a few different tattoo parlors and get them to draw you up some sketches...than you'll be able to choose from a few different ones before you make it permanent...most of all HAVE FUN!!

You should be able to look on the internet and find all kinds of designs that incorporate all of the things you mentioned. If you don't find one you like, you should be able to take several samples of things you do like to a good tattoo artist and get them to draw something up for you. I think the waves, koi fish, and flowers sounds like a really cool idea for a tattoo! Good luck.

There is a really famous Japanese painting of just waves, and it's really beautiful. I'm sorry I don't know the title, but it's for sale in poster stores a lot.
