To atone for the constant blah blah last month about my tattoo book release, I'm posting today about a great book I discovered while hanging at the Freak Books booth at the London Convention this past weekend.

I heartily recommend Art by Tattooists: Beyond Flash by Jo Waterhouse.

Featuring the work of twenty-six international tattoo artists, Art by Tattooists presents works using a variety of mediums, from ink, watercolor, acrylic paint, and oil to lino printing, painting on wood and board, as well as street art. And while tattoo imagery is heavily referenced, as the title says, you won't find flash design art as gathered in many other tattoo publications.

The 128-page book sells on Amazon for $14.36 and is well worth it.
