Sun Tattoo Photo #1885

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.

Originating from centuries-old cultural practices, tribal designs carry symbolic weight through their patterns and placement. Modern tribal tattoos adapt these traditional motifs into contemporary compositions that honor the style's heritage.

Forearm tattoos benefit from a natural canvas that follows the arm's long shape. Designs can wrap around the arm or sit on the inner or outer surface, giving flexibility in how the tattoo is displayed.
