Octopus Tattoo Design Ideas

The octopus is a tentacled sea creature that has fascinated man for centuries. Stories of giant octopus beasts have been a part of maritime lore since human beings have begun exploring the oceans. Although the octopus is often fabled as being a vicious predator, the truth is that they are quite reclusive and will attack only if threatened. This shy creature is becoming a popular subject for tattoo designs because of its beautiful, curling tentacles, alienish textures and unusual colors.
