Printable Tattoo Designs Artwork
There are a lot of truly good printable tattoo designs out there. There is also a boat load of terribly generic stuff out there, which drastically reduces your chances of finding the places that have the good artwork. Here's how you can tell if you're in some half generic gallery, or at a website that take pride in having original, high quality printable tattoo designs.
The very first thing you should do is take a look at their information page, or their about us page. You need to see if they are actually labeling their artists names, or at list listing them. If a gallery isn't afraid to tell you who the actual artists are, that means they will have mostly original, top notch printable tattoo designs. On the flip side of this, if they don't list artists, that gallery probably just steals generic artwork from anywhere they can get it and plops it on their pages.
Next, pull up one page of their artwork. Is it all flash designs? Flash looks very pretty and people can make some amazing looking designs in this format. The truth is that flash very rarely looks anything like what you see on paper. Once you ink a flash design on your skin, it will look completely different than what you see on paper, which is not a good thing. 95% of the time, it will look drastically worse than what you imagined it would. You don't want to mess around with those types of printable tattoo designs, unless you have an artist redraw it.
Hand or computer drawn artwork is always the way to go. Real artists know how to make a design that will look the same once it's tattooed onto someone's skin. That's the type of artwork you want to pick from. If the gallery lists the artists on their site, you can grab those names and do some quick research to see where else they've submitted artwork, which is an awesome way to gather even more printable tattoo designs. You won't believe how many sensational galleries you can find this way.

Impressionistic Tree Tattoo on the Back
Wow. We love this tattoo. The loose impressionistic styling of the leaves is reminiscent of Manet. Very individualistic.
BoPhoto said it took seven hours to do – and yeah, it hurt.
It was created by Jason Wells of Pulse Dermagraphics in Kent, Ohio. You can’t really tell by this photo, but near the trunk and on the outside of the leaves Wells used Japanese brush strokes. Very cool.
Cat Tattoo
When you love your cat this much, it’s time to get a cat tattoo.
Striking use of monochromatic palette adds dimension and style.
There are many places that one could put their cat tattoo, but the arm works well here.
Cherry Blossoms Make An Elegant Shoulder Tattoo
This cherry blossom tattoo on the shoulder is hitting it out of the park.
I love that tattoo design is really breaking out of the traditional mold – and that tattoo artists are becoming just that – artists. Their artistry is in design, the colour, the texture – knowing the parts of the body and how the tattoo will look on it.
Older traditional tattoo designs can have a cartoony 2d look to them – but newer designs are looser, more flowing. I think we are going in a never before explored world of tattoo design – with such looseness of strokes that would make even Vincent Van Gogh proud.
This cherry blossom tattoo drapes ever so sweetly over the woman’s shoulder. I love how the flowers are layered one on top of the other.
You can really call this tattoo an accessory. Kind of like a shawl draped over the shoulder.
Remember, tattoo regret is pretty common. That’s why a lifetime memberships with a Tattoo gallery is a great idea – there’s no rushing when it comes to choosing your tattoo.
Koi Dragon Arm Sleeve tattoo
Koi Dragon Arm Sleeve with beautiful colours.
Dragons are popular in the orient. They are a symbol of wisdom and longevity. The koi carp is a symbol of perseverance and courage. That is why koi and dragons make very popular tattoo subjects.
I love the beautiful colours on this tattoo. The details and shading on this arm sleeve tattoo are wonderful.
There’s nothing worse than rushing your tattoo choice. Take your time when choosing your tattoo – remember, you are going to have to love it the rest of your life.
