Blackwork Tattoos in Kaunas
Pure black ink, clean lines and solid fills. Blackwork ages well and stays readable on the skin for years. We tattoo this style in Kaunas every week.
Blackwork is tattooing built entirely on deep black ink. Graphic shapes, ornamental work and bold solid fills. At STUDIO 47 in Kaunas we do blackwork from small motifs to full sleeves.

What blackwork is
Blackwork uses black ink alone, with no colour and little or no grey shading. It runs from thin graphic linework to densely packed fills, ornaments and geometry. That makes it versatile: it suits a small motif and a full arm composition alike.
Why STUDIO 47
We work at a calm pace, with sterile equipment and a clear design plan before the session. We agree the idea, size, placement and a rough price in a free consultation first. The portfolio shows our real blackwork, not stock examples.
- Bold shapes and full sleeves
- Ornamental, geometric and graphic work
- Cover-ups of old tattoos
- High-contrast, striking motifs
Does blackwork hurt more?
Densely filled areas are more sensitive than thin linework because the skin is worked longer. The artist keeps a calm pace and takes breaks, and larger pieces are usually split across several sessions.
Is it good for covering an old tattoo?
Yes. Solid black ink is one of the most reliable ways to cover an old or failed tattoo. In the consultation we assess what can realistically be covered and what design it needs.
How much does a blackwork tattoo cost?
The price depends on size, detail and time. We give an exact figure in a free consultation once we see the idea, placement and rough size.
