The style

Fine line in my work

My philosophy is simple: I make tattoos the way I’d choose them for myself. Clean, delicate, living lines.

That’s how I know I won’t get tired of a tattoo, and neither will you. Even the smallest, most minimalist piece can hold a huge meaning. I believe fine line is the most elegant style, with so much significance behind it.

I always talk with you first, to understand your aesthetic, your vision and what the tattoo means to you. That way I can place it so it flows with your body’s anatomy, and it stays a tattoo you truly love.

Placement

Fine line, body by body

The same drawing behaves differently on different parts of the body. Keep scrolling — each placement takes over the screen in turn.

Arm

A great place to start if you’re getting your first tattoo, since it’s one of the least painful spots.

Just keep in mind it will always be in plain sight.

Shoulder

Honestly, one of my favorite places.

A tiny star or a delicate fine line flower looks beautiful here and moves with your body so elegantly. Plus, you can cover it with a T-shirt and still go to any event.

Between the breasts

Very beautiful, but also very painful and a bit risky.

If you’re planning a breast lift in the future, the tattoo can change shape, so the design needs to be chosen very carefully.

Ribs

In my opinion, one of the most versatile spots — everything looks good here.

And if someone tells you it’s very painful, don’t believe it. Choose a design that curves halfway around you and highlights your natural lines.

Hip

Here you need to go either big or small.

Something in between can look out of proportion. But let’s be honest, it’s the sexiest place for a tattoo.

Leg

I’ll be honest: yes, it hurts.

There’s very little space, but it looks beautiful. Tattoos here often need touch-ups, so I’d recommend going with something small.

Healed

Healed work

Healed

Fine line doesn’t have to fade into a blur. When it’s done right, it heals soft, clean and still delicate — this is how my work looks after healing.

Every body is different, and a few lines may soften a little over time. That’s completely normal, and if something needs a touch-up, we’ll fix it together. I always make sure your tattoo stays one you love.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

No, that’s a myth. A fine line tattoo holds up just like any other tattoo. It can look less contrasty simply because the lines are thinner, and the eye perceives them as softer.

You can see for yourself in the healed work just above. These are beautifully healed pieces of my work.

The smallest tattoo I’ve ever done was 1 cm. But keep in mind: the smaller the tattoo, the fewer details it can hold. If you want something detailed but small, consider microrealism.

All of them! This style is so versatile that it suits any part of the body. I’d recommend choosing the placement based on your specific design.
