The color black is often associated with power, mystery, elegance, and permanence. In tattoo culture, blackwork has become its own respected style, ranging from geometric patterns to full black-out coverage.

Blackwork tattoos use solid black ink in bold, graphic compositions. The style ranges from large filled areas and heavy patterns to intricate designs that rely on contrast between ink and bare skin.

Neck tattoos are among the most visible placements, making a confident statement. The area suits small, detailed designs behind the ear or bold pieces on the side or back of the neck.
