Whale Tattoo Photo #19419

There is something about a whale that makes people pause. Maybe it is the sheer size, or the way a forty-ton animal moves through the ocean with more grace than anything that large should have.

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.

The wrist offers a compact area that suits fine-line work, small symbols, and script. Its visibility means the tattoo becomes part of daily life, always in the wearer's line of sight.
