Bold Blackwork Tattoos | Range of Black Tattoo Ink 0


Blackwork tattooing has soared in popularity over the years, and it's a trend we can't get enough of. The aesthetic of blackwork tattoos is really cool, and there are some extremely eye-catching monochromatic images on Instagram of black tattoos which show just how beautiful this style really is.  

Blackwork tattoos are often dark, illustrative, and graphic, and can come in the form of geometric and ornamental styles, however there are still plenty of other ways in which blackwork can be depicted.  We've seen some stunning traditional style blackwork tattoos that are made of solid black areas and black shading.

Dark Neo-Traditional Tattoos from Adam Link | Black Tattoo Inks 0

We always love seeing progression in artists, and a change of style is always a really interesting thing to see, especially when it's just as brilliant as the previous style. This time last year, our Sponsored Artist Adam Link was focused on doing colourful neo-traditional tattoos that featured an array of bright tones with content such as girl heads, animals, and pop-culture portraits.  A year on, and Adam's work is still as stunning as ever, but recently he's producing a lot more black and grey coloured neo-traditional work, that has some really cool, dark elements to it.

Creepy Spider Tattoos | Buy Black Tattoo Ink online 0

Spiders are fascinating creatures.  They're generally relatively small creatures (and for the most part) the majority of spiders are harmless, and yet they seem to evoke so much fear in humans.  Arachnophobia - the fear of spiders is a very common phobia with 1 in 10 people suffering from it.  It may well be a learned fear from childhood from experiencing others being terrified of these tiny beings and therefore being conditioned into being scared of spiders. It's amazing how something so harmless can terrify someone.
