Tattoo

This book is a work of art. Whenever I have friends over, we always end up looking through it. Some of the photographs are just awe inspiring. I went back to the drawing board with the design of my own tattoo after buying this book, as it completely opened my mind up to possibilities I had never considered. Makes a great coffee table book too, and certainly provokes conversation!

I bought this as a housewarming gift for a dear friend of mine who is a tattoo artist. But before I wrapped it, I couldn't resist taking a peek inside. The book is thinner than I expected, but still fantastic for the coffee table. What really makes it impressive is the collection of stunning pictures... each large, vivid, and crystal clear. Absolutely beautiful shots of body art. The recipient loved it, and the book was passed around at the party all evening.

I may be a bit biased as my fiancee is featured in this book (pg. 94), but I think this is one of the best tattoo books I've had the pleasure of looking at. While some of the designs chosen are a bit simplistic for my taste, it shows a wide range of tattoos in color and also black work. I like that it doesn't just feature big name artists. The author took into account many artists no matter how well known, based on their talent (which is how it should be). The photographs are amazing and you won't believe some of them are tattoos because they look so real. This is well worth the small price that is being asked for it. Any fan of tattooing would be pleased with the work in this book.

This is an Excellent Book on Tattoos. The variety and quality of both the tattoos and the photos of them are extremely good. I have not got to read the text yet, I have been so engrossed in the photos. The book does not focus on just the big name tattooists like a lot of books out there, but this has not held back on the quality and originality of the pieces in the book.
