I am fascinated by Tattoos and art of body inking, by unique designs though not adventurous enough to own one. I appreciate the courage of the tattoo owner and artistic display and efforts of the Tattoo artist. I have noticed people of all ages adorning tattoos of all sizes, designs and colors. Eagles to crosses, stars, butterflies, flowers and all kind of unique and geometric patterns in tattoos and wonder the process involved in creating one. Tattoo or Body Inking is an Ancient Body Art to Modify Skin by Designs, so here I am sharing my findings of art of Tattoo creation.

What is Tattoo?

Tattoo is a body art created on skin by injecting ink into the skin through dermis. The ink assimilates with the cells of dermis and is shown through the epidermis the layer of skin that we see.

Rarely the ink of skin fades but remains more or less throughout entire life unless one wants to replace it through surgical methods.
