A Striking Tattoo in the American Traditional Style

This striking tattoo exemplifies the American Traditional style, characterized by its bold outlines, limited color palettes, and iconic imagery. The central subject is a meticulously rendered sugar skull (calavera), a symbol deeply rooted in Mexican culture representing remembrance of deceased loved ones.

Surrounding the skull are vibrant flowers, butterflies, and other traditional elements, all executed with precision and artistic flair. The tattoo's placement on the shoulder allows for a visually impactful display of this meaningful design.
