A heart pierced by lightning surrounded by stars

The design shows a stylized heart pierced by lightning, surrounded by decorative stars and dots. The heart lines are dynamic, with sharp bends and turns giving the pattern a sense of movement. Lightning crossing the heart is a symbol of violent emotions or changeable fate. The whole thing is made in black and white with shading and thick lines, which emphasizes the drama and depth of the motif. The design is perfect for an American Traditional style tattoo but with a contemporary twist.
