Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)As an artist myself, I've appreciated Don Ed Hardy's designs whether I see them on clothing or as a tattoo themselves. He has an excellent grasp of design and drawing and making subjects visually interesting...including traditional tatttoo "subjects".
Hardy's designs have recently exploded on the fashion scene because of this and now can be seen on everything from spiral notebooks to keyrings to his more-oft-seen shirts and jeans.
However, this book takes the reader back to what made Hardy well known...not the name brand or the commercial marketing but the artist behind it all.
There is little text in the book but an abundance of pictures...most of them in color... which makes it a pleasure to flip through. He's known for his dragon paintings, and flowers and those stand out throughout the book along with other traditional tattoo subjects he's taken to fine art.
However, the photo of the book cover on this product page is a tad deceiving as it makes it appear as though this is an uber thick coffee table book of endless photos and, while the book is filled with them, it's not a thick book as it's drawn on the home page. It's just 143 pages.
Still, that said, whether tattoo lover or fine artist, there is much to visually appreciate in Hardy's book.

Product Description:
At the age of ten, Don Ed Hardy recognized the unique force of tattoo art. Growing up in the center of 1950s and early 60s California pop culture, he went on to earn an art school degree and then learned to tattoo by apprenticing himself to master artists. Over the past forty years Hardy has revolutionized this ancient tradition while also bringing fresh energy to the classical mediums of painting, printmaking and ceramics through his exhibitions in galleries and museums across the United States and abroad.
