Wolf Tattoo Photo #363

Few animals carry as much symbolic weight as the wolf. It is a pack hunter and a solitary wanderer, a protector and a predator, a figure of myth across every continent where wolves have roamed.

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 collarbone's clean horizontal line provides a natural guide for elongated designs. This placement adds a subtle accent to the upper body and works especially well with fine-line and minimalist styles.
