THE ART IN TATTOOS

Behind tattoos is a pound of history from many different cultures. For example Egypt, hawai, Tahiti, japan, china, and even Africa. The difference between the meaning of tattoos then and now is huge. Back in history tattoos were used as symbols of certain cultures or honors, but today they are used as an art and way to express ones feelings. Both men and women have popular designs that could be seen today like there name or maybe a love ones name. A woman may be seen with tattoos that symbolize passion or happiness; also a feminine design may consist of a flower (rose). The lower back, hip, or ankle is common locations for a woman to place a design. Now that we are sure of things about women and tattoos, let’s take a trip to tattoos and men. There are numbers of designs that a man today would be seen showing to the world today. There are designs such as flames, skulls, crosses, snakes eagles, and ect.The follow
Designs symbolize manhood, sorrow, death, toughness, and for some hate. When looking at a persons body art the view may first have deep quick thoughts of what the body art may represent or in other words symbolize. There are also some body art that would even have a full told story behind them. As everyone know there are many types of art both happy and sad, not all art have a happy theme or meaning about it just like stories. Out in the world are many that decide to take a piece out of their l life and design their own body art. This is a way of showing that this is something that they would like to stay with them throughout their entire life. Or maybe at time motivate them. Tattoos are everywhere you look today because even centuries ago the were carried on by sailors, warriors, and now normal everyday people.Im glad to say that though tattoos are painful and were once considered a symbol of evil, tattoos also have a ways of good.But I must say that i highly reccomend that all wear'ers take excellent care of all body art.

POST #2


There is a hand full of reasons as to why I chose to this particular topic. Every since a young age I have became interested in body arts and the different kinds there are. I felt that since so many are also have this interest in body art, that it would be a good thing to write about. I would say that I am very much so in love with tattoos that I would like to learn more than I know about them. I also love looking at body art and figuring out it’s meaning. Tattoos seem to be a thing that makes some people happy or relaxed because afterward it actually means something to them. It could even remind a person of a certain moment in their life. Though tattoos to some a bad thing, I chose to write this topic to show that there are also good facts about them as well. That there are reason why many are addicted or infatuated with them. I decided to write on this topic to help answer some questions that researchers or other scholars may have. There I feel that posting this following blog can help a lot others to learn new and important things. Tattoos are a very interesting thing that is surrounding us our world today. They are a thing that both young and old have or thought about getting. I think writing on this topic could cause many to look at body art in a different way. For example maybe look at tattoos as a new accessory or a major part of fashion. There are different style,sizes,colors and place you could get a tattoo. I think a person should learn more about body art before thing other wise about them. I love tattoos and that’s why I chose to write about them.

The Things I know


I know tattoos today are a very big thing. Though they are known to be pretty painful, many are making them apart of their life everyday. Tattoos to many are considered to be a way of art or expressing themselves. For example a person that may decide to tattoo a cross or Christ himself, are most likely symbolizing a sort of religion. I also know that just as wonderfully any tattoo might look outstanding on someone, there are a hand full of ways that one could go wrong. If a tattoo isnt cared for correctly it could easily become effected by any sort of bacteria. A tattoo have a long process as to how it is created. There are also different processes that one could follow, some safe and some very unsafe. I know has become to have a huge impact on the not only adult world but, also the teen world. Many are getting tattoos today young and old. And i have learned this from everyday experiences. I would say 8 out of teen teens have a tattoo. I know that in the past years there wasnt many with tattoos compared to the amount of people that are into them today. Some are even addicted to tattoos. I have been told by my peers that have gotten one themselves, that after your first design you become fasinated with them and how much they tell about you. Looking at a persons body could tell another alot about them and sometimes their personality. Many that have body art would mostly like get a design that says something them,their past, or even present. For example one may get a name of a family member that may have passed away, or their name even. Tattoos to are considered today as a must have, like an accessorie.
