Specializing in Blackwork Tattoos
Blackwork joins American Traditional / Old School, and Black & Grey as being among the most timeless styles of tattooing. As the name indicates, the style is characterized by the use of only black ink, relying on high contrast, bold lines, and proportionately large (to the size of the design) areas of solid black to create its striking aesthetic. The style works exceedingly well with a wide variety of subjects and merges perfectly with other styles, including the likes of Abstract, Geometric, Polynesian / Tribal, and Lettering. The most extreme version of a Blackwork piece is a blackout tattoo.
While many tattoo artists begin their career being trained in Blackwork, only those who are most passionate about it and experienced in the style are able to create depth and dimension by expertly applying techniques like stippling and negative space (skin breaks) to make a remarkable work of body art.
