Day of the Dead Tattoo Sleeve

Product Information

The Day of the Dead is a holiday widely celebrated in Mexico which is also associated with the celebrations of Catholic occasions of ‘All Saints’ Day’ and ‘All Souls’ Day’. Mexico is a vibrant country known for its diverse fauna and flora. Their culture is also widely known for the joyous dances and cheerful music with the help of local folk instruments like banjo. The most iconic Mexican image would probably have a beautiful woman with red roses in her hair wearing a huge, flowy skirt and dancing to the tunes of the salsa or tango. Vivid floral patterns hold a central position in their culture. The skull symbol, or skulls in general, are usually recognized as a bad omen; something that represents darkness, death, and the deepest human fears. On the other hand, skulls have a completely different meaning for Mexicans. They particularly favor the so-called “sugar skulls,” which they use as decorations on the headstones of those who have left this world. The gravestones of the beloved ones are usually decorated on the Day of the Dead (Dia de los Muertos) festival. This is one of the main reasons why Day of the Dead tattoos typically involve sugar skulls. This one, though, is a bit of a double-edged sword because some people might see it as extremely creepy and others, totally cool. The picture above is of a classic La Catrina tattoo art in traditional style with roses in her hair. You can choose another design from many other traditional La Catrina tattoos. A traditional La Catrina tattoo will help you experience the best of the Day of the Dead. La Catrina Sleeve Tattoo
