Nine feather designs: a feather into birds, a peacock feather and hanging feathers, each in three styles.

Is this a design on skin?

No. Each design is a drawing on white paper, for taking to a studio or printing.

What is the mor pankh?

It is the peacock feather worn by Krishna in his crown, drawn here as that feather with its eye in rings.

What is the difference between the styles?

Traditional flash has bold outlines and a few accent colours. Fine line is one uniform hairline with little shading. Dotwork builds the shadows from dots.

Reading 3Hanging feathers

Feather tattoo designs, light and long, fitting the forearm, the ribs or the place behind the ear. The nine sheets show a feather whose tip breaks into a flock of birds, a peacock feather, the mor pankh that Krishna wears in his crown, and two feathers hanging from beads. Each is drawn as traditional flash, fine line and dotwork. Type a different bird or twist, such as a gold arrow, and the same 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.
