Shark is the choice of brave, persistent and very purposeful people. A tattoo depicting a sea predator is charged with aggressive energy, but at the same time serves as a protective amulet.

What does this pattern on the body symbolize:

  • among the ancient Polynesians - protection from attacks by enemies or predatory animals;
  • for sailors it is a talisman against the dangers that lurk at sea.

In the modern world, there is an opinion that such a tattoo “works” as a talisman for businessmen, since it enhances the courage, assertiveness and authority of its owner.

Design options

The tattoo looks impressive both in black and white and in color. In the first case, the drawing is best achieved in the Polynesian style: then it “functions” as a talisman.

In color, tattoos are done in watercolor, realistic or horror style. The image of a shark in the old school style also looks terrifying.

An invariable attribute of the sketch is blood splashes and marine paraphernalia (anchor, ship, etc.).

Where do people get tattoos?

The most common areas are the ankles, shoulders and forearms. Also, shark tattoos can often be seen on a man’s chest or ribs.

Such a sketch is practically not in demand among female audiences.

Analogues and related sketches

Tattoos depicting a hammerhead shark, a huge dangerous predator, are popular, which personifies a ferocious temperament, a strong grip on business and authority.
