Gemini tattoo art is recognizable by the image of the Gemini astrological sign, which is a depiction of two people together, or twins. In tattoo art, there are a thousand variations of this theme. Here are a few:
1. The stylized and simplistic versions have two parallel lines to symbolize the pair. The lines are joined by two thinner lines, one at the top and the other one at the bottom. This is somewhat akin to the Roman numeral for the number two. Some artists then add other elements into the design, for flair. This simple Gemini design could be incorporated with stars. It could have stylistic whorls or other lettering designs. It could be made to look like Gothic lettering, or a tribal tattoo. It could be juxtaposed with other images, like a sun or a flower or a name.
2. Another variation of Gemini tattoo art is the detailed rendering of the twins. Here, hyper realism in body art is used. It is the complete opposite of the 1st style. The people could be seen in full body. They comprise the two parallel lines that make up the Gemini symbol. Details such as body, hands, feet, legs, head, and even the face and its expressions are filled up in detail. This is very possible as tattoo art can achieve an intricacy to make portraits and even famous art reproduction.

3. Cartoon rendering of the Gemini astrological sign. Cartoon drawings are known for the bright use of flat color and the exaggerated use of line. It is also a popular style for skin artists and enthusiasts. In this case, the twins do not even have to be people. They could be animal representations or other cartoon characters, but still arranged in the way that a regular Gemini tattoo is designed. It lightens up the overall mood of the Gemini tattoo art, quite unlike the serious tone of the other two approaches.

These then are three ways out of the thousands, that a skin artist could approach a job requiring him to make Gemini tattoo art. The possible reason for getting this particular kind of tattoo is that:
o it communicates the fact that you are a Gemini with all attendant traits and characteristics
o that you simply like the design and want it on your skin, even if you do not believe in astrology
o or that you want to honor someone who is a Gemini
