About this design

What the design shows

This small portrait uses a single right-facing profile and a compact dark bun to make its shape. The forehead, nose, lips, chin, and neck are drawn in one unbroken fine contour, with a short lash marking the closed eye. Her hair is swept upward into a rounded bun made from a few broad black sections rather than individual strands. One loose line falls from the temple, curves across the cheek, and returns near the neck. The robe is suggested by two clean overlapping collar strokes that taper into a pointed lower edge. There are no flowers, fan, background, colour, or shading around the figure. Open skin carries most of the face and kimono, which makes the black hair read first. In the on-skin image, the profile is upright at thumb length on the inner wrist, with the bun nearer the palm crease and the collar pointing toward the forearm.

Placement

Placement and size

The example sits on the inner wrist, close to the palm crease, at about thumb length. The bun points toward the hand and the collar runs down the forearm. Its tall, narrow outline can also work on the ankle, behind the ear, side of a finger, or inner forearm. Keep it at least this size so the nose, lips, and loose hair line do not join. If reduced, simplify the bun divisions before thinning the face contour.

Patchwork

Building it into a patchwork

With almost no fill, this is a light piece that can occupy a small gap without pulling attention from bolder work. It works well beside a tiny flower bud, a thin crescent, or a short branch that follows the same wrist direction. Preserve a clear strip around the bun and the lower collar point. Large black shapes or dense dotwork against the profile would overwhelm the quiet face outline.

For your artist

Notes for your tattoo artist

01Keep the face contour unbroken from forehead to chin.
02Do not thicken the loose temple strand until it touches the cheek.
03Use fewer internal bun divisions if the wrist placement is very small.
04Align the collar point with the forearm, not the wrist crease.
