 Author: Marisa Kakoulas and Edgar Hoill Publisher: Edition Reuss Date Published: September 2010 "The collectors of these tattoos have been called freaks and monsters by those quick to judge others merely on appearance. Like all tattoos, however, the reasons behind them are personal and can range from the desire to intimidate to exorcising one's own demons to it simply being an aesthetic preference." This applies to the tattoo community as a whole. Those who have no knowledge or no interest in tattoos can never fully understand our desire to decorate our bodies. Tattooed people, to some, are freaks and should be locked away like the monsters depicted in this book. A book of horror tattoos wouldn't be complete without an interview with Paul Booth. "For over two decades, Paul Booth has been tattooing his own brand of dark imagery on fans – or rather faithful minions – seeking beauty through demons, satanic sirens and an alien fetus or two." What a joy must it be to spend your days tattooing horror themes, something you too have a passion for. The images and subject matter range from the Illuminati, Religion, skulls, demons, Satan, horror movie characters, skeletons, blood, gore and everything in between. Most of these pieces are completely original pieces, being of such a supernatural and horror theme (with no other work to take inspiration from) that the clients and tattoo artists have worked together to create something from scratch. The book is translated in to English, German and Spanish. Where to purchase: Book Depository - Cheapest by far and free shipping worldwide.  via Stacie Michelle http://stacie-michelle.blogspot.com/2013/05/black-grey-tattoo-darkhorror-volume-two.html | |||
