Different lily species carry distinct meanings, so the flower choice matters as much as the style. These tattoos can be soft and delicate or bold and graphic depending on the linework.

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.

Calf tattoos benefit from a muscular canvas that gives designs depth and presence. The flat rear surface works well for portraits and detailed work, while wrapping designs follow the leg's natural shape.
