Common imagery includes crosses, crucifixes, doves, fish (ichthys), angels, praying hands, rosaries, sacred hearts, and depictions of Christ or saints. Scripture verses and religious phrases also appear frequently.

Inspired by jewelry, architecture, and textile patterns, ornamental tattoos create intricate, decorative compositions on the skin. Precision and symmetry are key, giving these pieces an almost meditative quality.

Forearm tattoos benefit from a natural canvas that follows the arm's long shape. Designs can wrap around the arm or sit on the inner or outer surface, giving flexibility in how the tattoo is displayed.
