Art Drawing Skull Tattoo

A human skull with large, gaping, eye sockets can look very visually striking. However, the skull has long been regarded by most cultures as a symbol of death. Skull tattoos could therefore be used to show that the wearer has no fear of death. A skull tattoo could say that the wearer has accepted their own mortality and is actually pretty cool about the whole thing! They could also be used to remind the wearer that they will one day die and should therefore live each day to the full. Because of this association with death, skull tattoo designs can also be a good choice to commemorate the death of a friend or loved one. While some skull tattoo designs can be made to look quite scary, colorful skull tattoos can be quite the opposite!
