Loose lines, visible construction strokes, and intentionally unfinished edges give these designs a raw, artistic quality that breaks from the polished finish of traditional tattoo styles. The aesthetic of intentional imperfection Where most tattoo styles aim for clean, deliberate lines, sketch tattoos embrace the spontaneous energy of a working drawing.
