The designs combine geometric patterns, animal figures, and Pali script believed to offer protection, luck, or spiritual guidance. Each pattern follows a visual grammar rooted in Theravada Buddhist and Hindu tradition.

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.

The upper arm is a classic tattoo placement with enough space for medium to large designs. It's easy to cover with a short sleeve and serves as a natural starting point for a half or full sleeve.
