They’re beautiful. They’re breathtaking. They’re over the the top terrific. The dotwork style of design has distinguished itself as one of the most distinctive and exciting styles of the 21st century. It’s hard to visit a blog, website, or Instagram account related to the tattoo industry that doesn’t feature its fair share of dotwork designs.
Dotwork tattoos are easily recognizable by their composition of hundreds, or even thousands of tiny dots. The term dotwork, is really nothing more than pointillism rebranded by the tattoo industry.
While the dotwork style is used to shape tattoos of all subjects and styles imaginable, it’s the animal designs that always manage to make the biggest statements. But don’t take my word for it, below is a list of 45 dotwork designs that we think are pretty awesome.
