Many people connect it to endurance, resilience, and the ability to keep going through difficult seasons without losing your center. Visually, it's also a strong subject: the head shape, horns, and heavy silhouette make a buffalo design easy to recognize and hard to forget.

Watercolor tattoos use soft color gradients and flowing edges that mimic paint on paper. The technique avoids heavy outlines, letting colors blend naturally into the skin for a light, artistic appearance.

The shoulder's rounded shape gives tattoos a natural frame, wrapping designs around the deltoid muscle. It's a versatile placement that transitions easily into a sleeve or back piece.
