Music Based Tattoos
These musical tattoos are sweet music for your eyes.
From Notes to Noise
At first glance, one would believe that a visual art such as tattooing would have little to do with an auditory art like music, but you would be mistaken. The love of both tattoos and music is often driven by deep passion, passion to the point that the art invades every aspect of one’s life. Thanks to the musical symbols that are used to write out the sounds that are performed it is easy to convert into a tattoo. So turn up your stereo or hum along as you enjoy this gallery of musical tattoos.
