Memorial Tattoos to Keep Your Loved Ones Forever With You

Memorial tattoos are the ones we carve on our body in memory of a person or a pet who we have loved and with whom we have shared important times of our lives

Small Tattoos in Ideas

When you end up losing someone special to you, whether is the love of your life, that family member that keeps you down in life or a dear close friend, you wish life could go backwards. The loss of a loved one is hard and sometimes unexpected and it brings you down mentally, even years later.

If you experienced it, you know that depression and art goes hand in hand, and sometimes that's what saves you. Tattoos can be like a turning point. Helping to move on. For some people tattoos are magical.

Memorial tattoos are very meaningful and they have lots of personal value for the holder. These tattoos need to be designed with care and they need to be full of impact, full of care.

Abstract tattoos

Abstract tattoos a great option to express emotions: “With my tattoo, I want to remember my mother, father and brother that passed away in the last three years. The infinity symbolizes that even if we're not physically together anymore, our connection is infinite. Every color in it represents one family member. Even though they were rough years for me, I am looking forward to what comes in the future and that's what the tattoo also shows. Positive feelings.”
