BIG OF TATTOOS

Tribal art has become one of the most requested types of tattoo designs by men and women alike. Many men get these tattoos as armbands or as large images on the shoulder; most women request them as an ankle band or as artwork on their lower backs.

Although most modern-day tribal designs do not have a particular significance to a tribe or clan, the amalgamations that have emerged from the many influences belong more to the person creating the art or the individual wearing it. Many people find their tribal art tattoos to be a statement of their individuality.

Many tribal art designs are comprised of strong, bold images that are appealing to the eye. They are usually characterized by intertwining, thick lines and are often symmetrical in shape. They are frequently filled in black and feature distinctive, repetitive patterns that are often unique to the artist who has developed the design.
