Blackwork

Blackwork tattoos are distinguished by their use of bold, solid black ink to create striking designs. They encompass a wide range of styles, from geometric patterns and abstract shapes to detailed illustrations.

Using varying degrees of shading and negative space to add depth and dimension, they achieve a unique result.
