Boar Tattoo Photo #16259

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.

By placing thousands of tiny dots at controlled spacing, dotwork artists achieve smooth gradients and intricate patterns. This labor-intensive method gives tattoos a unique texture that stands apart from traditional line-based work.

The chest is a bold placement choice that stays mostly concealed under clothing. Its proximity to the heart makes it a popular spot for meaningful symbols, text, and portrait work.
