Sheep Tattoo Photo #9832

From biblical lamb symbolism to the rebellious black sheep, the animal adapts to both sweet and subversive interpretations. The woolly texture and expressive face give artists plenty of room to create distinctive, character-driven pieces.

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 inner arm offers a soft, relatively flat surface that suits detailed and sensitive designs. It's a semi-private placement, visible only when the arm is turned or raised.
