The American Traditional Tattoo Bear, or simply the Tattoo Bear, is an icon of the classic tattoo style that has been widely popular for centuries. It is an image of a bear, usually done in black and grey and often with a few other elements, such as stars or a banner, to complete the design. It is a classic tattoo design, but it has been making a bit of a resurgence in recent years, as more people look to traditional tattoos to express themselves.
