About this title

Synopsis

As old as human history & as new as this moment, tattoos have gone from being the domain of outlaw bikers & sailors to becoming cutting-edge body decoration, And this book celebrates the medium for what it is - deeply personal & often provocative art Myriad motifs appear on its pages, from malevolent totems & dark demons to lighthearted graphics, cartoon anime, flowing Japanese-style florals, & old-school flash, in palettes as subtle as black & gray to in-your-face vibrant Day-Glo. Showcasing striking, full-color photographs of this skin art, Tattoo also features the honesr words of a broad spectrum of individuals who have submitted their skin to a tatto artist's needle. When the needle pierces the skin, the whims of the artist & the subjec tbecome permanently embedded on the skin. What inspired these indelible designs? Tattoo invites you to share the unique stories & striking visuals of some anazing ink.

Store Description

I have a large inventory of children's books, cookbooks, collectibles, classics, first editions, signed books, history, biographies, science, textbooks, and more. Each book to me is a "precious jewel" and I try and describe it, giving you a good understanding of its content, and also its condition. One example, I have a John Muir book where he has written in the margins all through it to correct mistakes made by the publisher. (this was confirmed by John Muir historic site for me) I have over 50,000 books and some are quite rare from 1800's to 2020's. I've been collecting books for over 50 years and now am a spry 80 and going strong. I try and get books out same day as order comes in and love it when someone writes that they's been looking for a book for years and finally found it with me!
