This unique approach maintains the appearance of works in progress, with visible sketch lines, cross-hatching, and deliberate imperfections that give each piece authentic artistic character. Artists sometimes apply this technique to classic subjects like rose compositions for a fresh, unfinished look.

Using lines of varying thickness to define shape and depth, linework tattoos achieve expression through economy. The absence of shading keeps the focus on the quality and flow of each stroke.

The ribcage offers a private placement that only shows when the wearer chooses. Its curved surface adds dimension to designs, though the area is known for being one of the more sensitive spots to tattoo.
