Hibiscus Tattoo Photo #14174

Abstract tattoos break away from literal representation, using shapes, colors, and unconventional compositions to create expressive, non-figurative designs. The style prioritizes feeling and movement over realism.

Ankle tattoos are subtle and easy to conceal with socks or footwear. The small canvas works best with compact designs, bands, or wrapping patterns that follow the joint's shape.
