Motorcycle Tattoo Photo #16853

The motorcycle represents freedom, risk, and the raw thrill of the open road in a way that few other machines can match. Biker culture and body art have been intertwined since at least the mid-twentieth century, when outlaw clubs and independent riders alike began marking their loyalty, experiences, and attitude with permanent ink.

Combining the strong linework of traditional tattooing with contemporary shading and color theory, neo-traditional pieces feel both familiar and fresh. The style allows for more realistic proportions while keeping the iconic bold look.

The ribcage offers a private placement that only shows when the wearer chooses. Its curved surface adds dimension to designs, though the area is known for being one of the more sensitive spots to tattoo.
