What's your opinion on tattoos? Are they works of art, or simply body graffiti? Vote in the poll.

I love tattoos but some can be disgusting and pointless, but the majority of them are beautiful and artistic.

[smudgie]

Very artistic nowadays.

Back in the day I had a good few, painful getting them removed some years later.

One of my exes had his name tatted on his bits...:shrug: Must have had a poor memory.

[Redway]

I'd say graffiti is art.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Nothing but a fad. Yes some tattooists are very skillful but the vast majority are cheap tat copy design.

Bloody awful and thats from someone who has them

[Samuel.]

Obviously completely depends what the tattoo is of

Ooo controversial... I tend to agree. So long as they don't do it on my house, then it's vandalism.

I don't really like tattoos. And I imagine they hurt... so why would you?

[King Gizzard]

Art unless they're tramp stamps. or tribal sleeves

Not for me though

You wouldn't put stickers on a lambo

LOL... nice one.

..yeah, I agree with Samuel..it depends on the tattoo but some of them are incredible works of art especially watching a skilled tattoo artist like Kat Von D...what I love just as much as watching the tattoos being created is the stories attached to why the people are having them done..Miami Ink is a huge guilty pleasure of mine, I think the artists are incredibly talented...
