Celtic Tattoos

Celtic tattoos represent the heritage of historic and diverse groups of tribal societies in Europe dating back to ancient times. And more modernly Celtic tattoos pay tribute to Ireland and Irish heritage in general.

Celtic tattoos come in a variety of different designs, some of the most popular designs include the shamrock, the Claddagh Ring which is also known as the Irish wedding band, the triple spiral or triskelion and of course the sacred and mysteriously beautiful knots which come in many different patterns.



Celtic tattoos look great on almost any area of the body, such as the back and behind the ear.



Black, green and red are perhaps the most common colors used within a Celtic tattoo.



Other less common Celtic tattoos include the harp, leprechauns, the ancient book of kells and various animals.

Cat Tattoos

Lets face it people, cats are pretty freaking awesome and really who wouldn't want to have their favorite furry kitty tattooed on them, forever?!?

There are so many choices when selecting cat tattoos, some people choose the cartoon route and get an animated style design often accompanied by other small objects like stars, hearts and maybe even a bird, while other folks rather have a tattoo of their very own cat or cats, which requires a very skilled tattoo artist and a high quality photo of your precious kitty cat.

Have a look through this picture gallery of very nice cat tattoos.


Some people like to have their cats personality incorporated into the tattoo design.



Traditional cat portrait tattoos are very common, just make sure you get the right end of Mr or Mrs kitty.



Getting a tattoo of the family cat can be a great thing, but getting a tattoo portrait of all the family pets is an excellent way of truly showing your gratitude to the animals you love.

Car Tattoos

If you are a car enthusiast you have probably considered getting a tattoo of your favorite car, truck or other automobile. Or perhaps you just find the design of cars appealing, and with so many choices to choose from such as race cars, muscle cars and other exotic import vehicles, it can be quite difficult deciding on a single tattoo design.

Well have a quick look through these pictures of various cool car tattoos.



Car tattoos are commonly seen on the outer forearm, followed by the upper arm area.



Car tattoos are typically seen on men, however they look just as appealing on women as well.



If you can't decide on a single car tattoo, you can always mix and match to create a stunning compilation of automobiles, perhaps in the form of a sleeve or back piece design.
