Skull tattoos may very well be one of the most common imagery in tattooing. A symbol of mortality, the skull is an extremely versatile tattoo option. Skull tattoos are often combined with other design elements whether it be a snake, rose or sunglasses. The skull is also a very popular choice as part of a large scale piece such as sleeves and backpieces.
