Abstract Tattoos - Designing Your Own Piece of Art

Some of the best works of body art I have seen has been in the form of abstract tattoos. These are unique to the wearer and should be absolute one- off designs. If you can work to design your own abstract tats, then you can be assured that no one else will be walking this earth with anything that is quite like yours.




Many abstract tattoos use the tribal designs that are popular today. You can manipulate some of these designs to suit your body shape or the area you are wanting to have inked, and can change certain aspects of the abstract tats to suit your taste. Some believe that tribal tattoos fall into the abstract tattoos category, but to me, this is a category where you have free reign of the design and interpret it as you like.




I have seen some great representations of tribal tattoos with a Celtic angle thrown in for good measure. These work really well, especially if you are looking at wrap around arm tattoos. For chest and back tattoos, having an abstract symbol with some detailed background can be extremely effective as well. Think Def Lepards album cover!




The beauty of abstract tats is that you can integrate any design that you like to help convey your message. This means that you can mix styles and come up with something that is as unique to you as you will find. There are many abstract tattoos and designs that you can base your decision on and finding the right one may mean searching for some time. Finding the one or the ones that click for you can be a trip.




Take a look at many different abstract tattoos and designs, make noted of what you like and what you would blend and see if you can come up with a design that you can truly say is yours.
