Graffiti Tattoo Kings on Skin documents the transition that graffiti writers are increasingly making into the tattoo world. These spray paint technicians are making a splash worldwide with their color mastery and wild styles, creating a new visual language on skin that includes letters and boldness, burners and characters. Join us in celebrating the artwork of the best artists that have made the transition from the streets to the tattoo shops around the world, including Jason Kundell, Mr. Went, Ces, Sabe, Timmi Mensah, Circle and many others.
Many graffiti artists work in a variety of areas in a quest to improve their writing skills. Their work can be seen on murals, in fashion - and now even in tattoo design. These spray paint technicians with wild styles are changing the face of skin art with their bold designs and lettering. Filled with graffiti style burners and characters that are departure from the standard tribal designs and sailor styles, this collection celebrates this cross-over style from streets to parlours. Includes the work of Jason Kundel, Mr Went, Med, Ces, Chucho and more.
