Black Panther Head & Rose Tattoo

A tattoo combining a panther head and a rose, both absolute staples of the American Traditional style.
By intentionally eschewing color in favor of solid, thick outlines and heavy black shading, the powerful and rugged nature typical of traditional tattoos is heavily emphasized.
The design features a striking contrast between the intimidating, fierce panther and the classic beauty of the rose placed below it.
Perfectly balanced to fit the anatomy of the forearm, it creates a highly impactful presence even as a standalone piece.
