Mean, bold, fierce - some of the attributes associated with a tiger tattoo. The symbolism of the tiger does not end here, however. Invincibility, might and power may also come to mind when one encounters an image of this beautiful animal tattoo.
In Japan, the tiger is paired with the dragon to signify the yin and the yang or heaven and earth. Koreans view this animal as the leader of the jungle, as compared to the lion which leads the animal world in Africa.Different countries hold different meanings for the tiger. One thing is certain though. Tigers symbolize power and strength. It is for this reason that this animal is one of the most famous images used by people as the object of their tattoos.
Tattoo artists and tattoo enthusiasts alike have favored this mighty beast not only because of the meticulous and artistic talent it would need to draw the image on skin but also because of the meaning it could hold for the person who wears it.
Some people prefer having only the face of the tiger. Some would want it in a creative pose or in action. There are those who want to have it in black and white, and those who would rather have it in full color across a wonderful landscape.
