Whether combined with roses, skulls and daggers in the traditional American style, or used as part of a complex floral design, combined with a mandala, feather, moon, phoenix or geometric tattoo, they are a flexible element with rich symbolism.
Although they may have somewhat bad connotations, they have many positive meanings in different cultures around the world.
Similarly, their imagery can range from enlarged, realistic animal tattoos to delicate, minimalist lines.

Placement of the snake tattoo
Snake tattoos are a versatile tattoo idea that, depending on its size, can be placed on any part of the body.
Small snake tattoos are usually placed on the neck or even on the face. Large snake eyes are often seen on the biceps or shoulders.
Some typically large snake species, such as pythons, are used as inspiration for whole body snake tattoos, from ribs to feet. Japanese snake tattoos are usually done as part of the sleeve or entire back.
Its versatility is evidenced by the fact that it can be as tiny as a finger tattoo, with one small line representing the snake.
