Nine designs: a monarch, a small flight of butterflies and a floral-winged butterfly, each in three styles.

Is this a photo of a tattoo on skin?

No. Each design is a drawing on white paper, meant to be taken to a studio or printed.

Can I ask for a different butterfly or a twist?

Yes. Type a different subject or twist, such as a moth or red ink; the result is a new drawing, not a guaranteed match.

What is the difference between the styles?

Fine line is one thin outline with little shading. Dotwork builds the shadows from dots. Traditional flash has bold black outlines and a few flat colours.

Butterfly tattoo designs for the wrist, ankle or collarbone, the usual choice for a first or a small tattoo. The nine sheets show a monarch seen from above, three small butterflies rising in a loose diagonal, and a butterfly whose wings are filled with peonies and leaves. Each is drawn as fine line, dotwork and traditional flash. Type a different subject or twist, such as a moth or red ink, and the same three styles can be asked for.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
