Coming up with a personal tattoo idea [1] isn't easy. You want to pick something that's both meaningful and something that no one else will have (although no one ever said it's completely mandatory for your new ink to have a super-deep meaning). Still, if you're looking for ideas for your next tattoo but you want to go beyond the scope of inspirational quotes [2] and animal designs [3], you can always think more outside of the box with a negative-space tattoo.
Negative space tattoos are one of the more popular tattoo trends [4] of the summer. They use your skin to make shapes or other images, the concept behind them is definitely easier to understand when you can actually get a visual of them rather than a mere description. To see what we mean, check out a few of our favorite examples of negative space tattoos ahead, and don't be afraid to combine this concept with something you love.
