Tattoo Designs

Tattoo flash is one or more tattoo designs printed or drawn on a sheet of paper or cardboard. Tattoo flash is usually displayed on the walls of tattoo shops in order to give customers design ideas for tattoos. Traditionally, tattoo flash was designed by a tattooist for display in his own shop.

Tattoo artists call these designs that very common and are done on many people flash. If you get a tattoo flash, you can rest assured that someone else has that tattoo somewhere. Although the tattoo artist changes it a little, it still is flash. If you want something original, look somewhere else besides the flash on a wall in a shop.

Tattoo flash sometimes traded or sold flash sheets among themselves. Today, hand-drawn, local tattoo flash is rare. Many flash artists make multiple color photocopies or prints of flash and sell them at tattoo conventions or on the internet. As a result, contemporary tattoo shops display flash from many artists. Newcomers to the tattoo flash industry wishing to publicise their designs sometimes freely distribute flash on their web pages or websites with free flash designs.
