Boar Tattoo Photo #16251

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.

Using lines of varying thickness to define shape and depth, linework tattoos achieve expression through economy. The absence of shading keeps the focus on the quality and flow of each stroke.

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.
