Style experiment
Ignorant raven tattoo
Poe's bird: intelligence dressed in black. Ravens do their best work in blackwork and sketch styles, where feather texture becomes the whole show. In Ignorant, that reads as: deliberately badly good.

Anti-style: shaky lines, deadpan stick figures, one-liner jokes in ink. Ignorant style grew from Parisian graffiti and refuses polish on purpose — the charm is the attitude. Simple to execute, painful to fake; the humour has to land.
A raven carries intelligence, prophecy, transformation — and Ignorant's anti-polish give that symbolism its voice. Placement matters too: this subject flows best on the shoulder, forearm, chest.
Same idea, other voices
