Not everyone has the same taste in art. That’s why there’s so many different genres of art a person can emerge him or herself in. The same goes for people and the tattoos they choose to ink on themselves. A person can get anything tattooed but what matters most is the style it’s illustrated in. Just like how there’s so many different art genres in the world, the same applies to tattoos: American traditional (Sailor Jerry style), geometric, black and grey, neo-traditional, Japanese, and so forth. Sometimes within one genre is several sub-genres. Tribal, for example, is one general tattoo style but there are different types of tribal tattoos. A tribal tattoo could be Celtic, Samoan and Polynesian, Mayan and Aztec, and so on. What most of these sub-styles have in common, however, is that they’re usually all done in solid black. That’s what makes tattoo artist Brian Gomes’ work so special.
