Flame Tattoo Photo #22161

Flame styles and patterns If you like bold energy and color, psychedelic styles are another option. Classic flames use traditional tattoo shapes-bold, curving tongues of fire with clear outlines.

Using only black ink at different dilutions, this style achieves a photographic quality with rich shadows and soft highlights. Black and grey work is versatile enough for portraits, nature scenes, and symbolic imagery.

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.
