A portrait tattoo is a real test of skill. Here, as in no other case, it is important to be careful in drawing lines and light and shade.

The meaning of a portrait tattoo

First of all, it is a “living” memory of a dear person - a family member or soulmate. A tattoo portrait of a celebrity speaks of a desire to live up to one’s idol. And sometimes it’s just a desire to decorate your body with a beautiful image of an unusual and bright personality.

Fresh portrait tattoo ideas:

• photo of a loved one. Many people strive to immortalize a portrait of their child;
• tribute to the idol. Such tattoos are inspired not only by popular singers or actors, but also by other famous personalities - Einstein, Mother Teresa, etc. Portraits of heroes of films or TV series are also common;
• image of a beautiful and fatal woman. Such portraits are often painted in the Chicano style, where the girl is presented as a dangerous and attractive beauty;
• fantasy image. Such tattoos depict Indian women, geishas or witches.

Portraits are created using realistic techniques and printed on the “sleeves,” back, and chest. The color of the tattoo does not matter: there are many spectacular works done in monochrome.
