The Sketchbook: 80 Unique Designs by the World's Finest Tattoo Artists - Hardcover
Synopsis
The idea of creating a book that would shed new light on the world of tattoo artists was first conceived about two years ago. Marco Bratt a tattoo-artist from The Netherlands, and his girlfriend Nancy Heimburger, a lifestyle photographer, did their utmost to contact eminent tattoo artists from all over the world with the request that they create a sketch for inclusion in this unique book. The authors' enthusiasm inspired a wide range of artists, who were able to express themselves in deeply personal ways, unrestrained by commercial demands. These artists are all well known for dedicating their lives to their profession, but the extent of their artistic versatility is frequently overlooked. This sketchbook of 80 exclusive designs has been produced with this in mind. Works by several of these artists have never been published in book form before.
The book is divided into two sections, the first comprises an introduction detailing how this collection was brought together along with a brief overview of the various styles and historical aspects of tattooing. Also included are photographs made by the authors during their extensive travels, reproduced here for the first time. The second section is devoted to the artists themselves, each sketch being accompanied by their individual biographies and favourite quote.
