Tattoo Sketchbook: Since 1966

In recent years, the tattoo artist sketchbook has become a valuable resource for great tattoo ideas and designs. Although Jim Watson's tattoo style is normally recognized for being bright and colorful, these sketches show the reader the drawing technique and sketching process of a tattoo artist. The pages contain valuable reference sketches for tattoo artists, and is a great source for easy-to-copy, and easy-to-perform tattoo designs. For anyone who needs to tattoo a Mom across a traditional heart, or Harley-Davidson down someone's arm, Jim provides a variety of simple and elaborate fonts so you're sure to have the correct type style for a given situation. Produced on heavy paper with a hard cover, Jim's personal sketches are bound so the book lays flat on a table, all the better to fully study and utilize the numerous images. This collection will help everyone from new artists to journeymen; as well as their clients, to select (and, if needed, modify) the tattoo that they want and need.
