A boar is often associated with courage, toughness, and the willingness to push forward even when the path is rough. For some people it's a "fighter" motif; for others it's simply a bold creature with fierce energy and a strong silhouette and intense expression.

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 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.
