As a tattoo artist passionate about this style, I wanted to share why ignorant tattoos speak to so many people especially myself.
What is Ignorant Style Tattoos?
Ignorant style tattoos are a refreshing break from perfection. Characterised by their intentionally “childlike” or “amateurish” appearance, they embrace simplicity, bold lines, and a raw, unpolished aesthetic. This style isn’t about trying to achieve hyper-realistic portraits or flawless symmetry—it’s about storytelling, spontaneity, and having fun with art. Think doodles with attitude, quirky characters, and a bold middle finger to traditional artistic norms. For clients and artists alike, it’s a celebration of imperfection.
Why Choose Ignorant Style Tattoos?
Personal expression: Ignorant tattoos are not bound by rules. They are freeform and driven by the client's imagination or impulsive ideas.
Authenticity: These tattoos embrace imperfections making them raw and unapologetically real.
Humour: Many ignorant tattoos carry a tongue in cheek attitude whilst injecting fun into tattooing and rejecting overly serious designs.
Final Thoughts
Ignorant style tattoos are a reminder that art doesn’t need to be perfect to have meaning. They celebrate individuality, humour, and the raw joy of creating something uniquely you. As an artist, it’s my mission to help you tell your story, whether through a bold stick-figure cat or a quirky smiley face that screams, “This is me.”
