These concepts use watercolor in three ways: pale color over fine outlines, color concentrated in butterfly wings, and looser splashes around a defined rose. The images are color studies, so discuss workable outlines and healed examples with your tattoo artist.

Loose blue splashes surround a structured rose and dark tapering stem. Compare the defined bloom against the diffuse color. Discuss the final color boundary and healed-work examples with an artist who works in color.
