The art of Tattoo

With his post, I want to start the discussion about Tattoo.



First I’m intending to position questions which are bothering me about this art. Just some time ago I realised that I have a quite a collection of Tattoo but I never truly wanted to do one for myself.

So, why I collect them?

Why do people want to have something on their bodies and not only on their walls?

What is a difference (I'm not talking about technical part) between art on the canvas and art on the own skin?

Why do some artists keep working on body surface with temporary materials?
