MarkM Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 After seeing THE docu Hori Smoku About THE live of sailor jerry i'm really interested in his japanese work. For now i only found a few images online and really wanna see/know more. Never thought i wanted a japanese piece, but now i do. So the question is who knows more? Are there books? Or are there more artists tattooing in this american/japanese style Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zetroc Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Check out "Bushido: Legacies of Japanese Tattoos" and "Tattoos of the Floating World" - both by Ryudaibori and both very interesting primers on the subject of Japanese tattoos. He's more of a traditionalist than most but the background he gives is incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJDeepFried Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Ed Hardy did a lot to popularize and refine that style so that's the next place to look. The Tattoo Time box set (reprints of the original magazine) has some stuff on Sailor Jerry I thinkSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
