Asian Tattoo Photo #22917

"Asian tattoo" is a very broad label. Asia includes many cultures and visual traditions, so the first step is choosing a specific direction-dragon themes, Chinese calligraphy, South Asian spiritual imagery, Southeast Asian ornamental geometry, or something tied to your own heritage.

Combining the strong linework of traditional tattooing with contemporary shading and color theory, neo-traditional pieces feel both familiar and fresh. The style allows for more realistic proportions while keeping the iconic bold look.

The collarbone's clean horizontal line provides a natural guide for elongated designs. This placement adds a subtle accent to the upper body and works especially well with fine-line and minimalist styles.
