Which style suits your idea?
Fine line is a starting point for delicate lettering, small illustrations and floral lines. Blackwork centres on solid black shapes and uninked skin, while Black & Grey also uses grey values and light.
For larger connected designs, explore Japanese-inspired compositions and geometric, mandala and Sayagata patterns. Separate motifs can develop into traditional patchwork. Our guide to planning a tattoo sleeve helps you think ahead.
