Realism tattoos

Head-turning ink.

A good Realism tattoo will make you do a double take.

This style is as authentic as it gets, portraying people, pets and places at their best. Whether in a full spectrum of color or simple Black-and-Grey, Realism tattoos leverage real proportions found in nature and shading true to the light source to create an almost photographic effect.

Realism tattoos are a solid choice if you want to commemorate a friend, relative or four-legged friend, or a location that means something to you. With the right tattoo artist at the needle, you’ll have a tattoo so vivid, it’ll forever take you to your happy place or bring a smile to your face.

But there are a couple of things you’ve got to remember when getting a Realism tattoo. Firstly, go big or go home. The smaller you make it, the less opportunity for detail. The more detail you try to cram into a small space, the more likely it’ll look blurry and distorted over time. Nobody wants that.

And another thing: location, location, location. You want to put a Realism tattoo where everyone can see it. Any great tattoo artist will tell you that.

But a good Realism tattoo artist can be hard to find...except when you’re in Nashville—then we can hook you up.

Our team at Hart & Huntington Nashville will help you dream up and design the most incredible Realism tattoo you can imagine. We’ll also find the perfect spot on your body to ensure you can show it off at every opportunity, and so that it’ll age well. Stop on by our store in downtown Nashville for a consult today or send in your booking request.
