Gothic Hourglass with Skull Hands

The tattoo depicts a gothic hourglass with black sand flowing through it, symbolizing the inexorable passage of time. The hourglass is held by skeletal hands and surrounded by tangled thorn vines, adding drama and darkness to the design. Subtle, swirling shadows in the background add depth and emphasize the sinister feel of the design. The detailed work includes precise lines and delicate shading that highlight both the structure of the hourglass and the individual elements of the surroundings.
