Tiger Symbolism Across Cultures The tiger is one of the most powerful animals in body art, carrying centuries of symbolic weight across civilizations. In Chinese culture, the tiger is a celestial guardian representing bravery, authority, and protection.

Watercolor tattoos use soft color gradients and flowing edges that mimic paint on paper. The technique avoids heavy outlines, letting colors blend naturally into the skin for a light, artistic appearance.

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.
