Sun Tattoo Photo #1880

Across world mythologies the sun represents vitality, truth, and the cycle of day and night. From Egyptian Ra to Aztec Tonatiuh, solar imagery offers tattoo artists a symbol that is both ancient and universally understood.

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.
