Skull Tattoo Photo #687
The human skull transcends cultures-appearing in biker patches, sugar skull celebrations, pirate flags, and vanitas paintings. Its meaning shifts from dark rebellion to colorful celebration depending on style and context.
Inspired by jewelry, architecture, and textile patterns, ornamental tattoos create intricate, decorative compositions on the skin. Precision and symmetry are key, giving these pieces an almost meditative quality.
The wrist offers a compact area that suits fine-line work, small symbols, and script. Its visibility means the tattoo becomes part of daily life, always in the wearer's line of sight.
