I did not want to be rude, but Tribal is a style of art.I think the closest I can get to a tribe is hanging with the Vikings.


haha.
that's kinda my point.
tattoos are art.
tribal tattoos are a fad.


My first Tribal was at 18 years old, My second was at 28 years old, This will be at 39 years old, not a fad for me. Please do not take wrong ;)

maybe they're not a fad for you.
i still think they're a fad though.
i don't get why most people get tribal tattoos.
i see it as if i were to get a celtic knot tattoo.
i'm mexican.
wtf?

For me they make a bold statement even if I do not know the root and meaning of the design. They are also neutral as not to offend those that are easily offended.

Don't you want to know the meaning of designs you're tattooing on your body?

No not really, did not care when I carved into my body with a razor blade, ink ain't sh-t.

Nice work. When mine is finished will post a pic or two, maybe on main page. I do not think it will get done in one sitting.

My profile Pic is some of my work, Ink is what YOU as the ONE who wears it means what YOU make of it.
I have alot of work on me & each has it's own meaning to ME and that is what matters most.

Personally I hate all tattoos, no offense to anyone, it is just my opinion. So needless to say, if you must get one,get one you can hide!

I think my next is going to be this quote "Everything happens for a reason, so smile through the tears, laugh at the pain, and love what you have not what you want"

But have to figure out where and how. Before I decide to go do it. But I like this quote, and think its a great mantra to live by.

I have actually been playing with the idea of a family tat...some design, symbol that has some meaning to us as a family unit..initially the adults get it,...then as each child reaches some age..say 16 maybe they get it as a right of passage...kinda bringing the tribal spirit into a modern family...of course been thinking about this for probably 15 years now..

That brings the idea of Tribal to a new level. It is an intriguing idea, just not sure about marking the young.
