Johnny Depp Tattoo Designs

The egyptians believe the sparrow could deliver the souls of the dead to heaven. Another meaning would be for freedom, as some prisoners had sparrow tattoos.It was made popular when Captain Jack from Pirates of the Caribbean has a sparrow tattooed onto his arm with the name "jack". The actor Johnny Depp himself also has one.

Rose Tattoos

Roses originated in ancient Persia and were historically viewed as a masculine flower, however several thousand years of cultivation produced many exquisite and beautiful variations associating it with females and love.

Greeks mythology described roses as being white until the goddess Aphrodite pricked herself on the thorns, and her blood drops turned the blossoms red. Even today people attach meaning and emotional qualities to roses.

Skull Tattoo

Today skulls are starting to also be associated with life in a way. If a skull represents death then it can also be a reminder to us that life is short and to live each day to it's fullest a sort of symbolic "Carpe Diem".Now there are still those of course that get skull tattoo just to look tough and menacing but the number has definitely changed in the last few years. Those that want to look thought and menacing get tattoos like the Grim Reaper. The Grim Reaper is an depiction or a figure of death the one who comes and gets you at the end of your time. He wears black robes and has no face but carries a big farming sickle.
