Emblem Tattoo Photo #13272

Clean pattern work helps emblem lines stay crisp. Unlike a random decorative pattern, an emblem is meant to be recognized, even if only you understand the full story behind it.

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.

The back provides the largest continuous canvas on the body, ideal for detailed scenes and large-scale compositions. Upper back pieces are easy to conceal, while full-back tattoos make a dramatic statement.
