CONTENTLine Drawings and Sketches
In Japanese tattooing the background does as much work as the main subject, and it is often the hardest part to get right. Looking for the Right Flow Vol. 2 is Fabio Gargiulo's study of that problem: 180 pages of original drawings of waves, clouds, wind and vortices, flames, rocks and lightning, the elements that tie a large Japanese piece together.
Many of the studies are drawn in red over full sleeve and back piece layouts, showing how the background moves around the body and frames the subject rather than just filling space. Gargiulo, a Japanese-style specialist who works at South Ink Tattoo Shop in Pozzuoli, Italy, focuses on balance and movement throughout.
This Japanese tattoo book is a working reference for tattooers developing large-scale Japanese pieces, and a natural follow-up for anyone who already owns the first volume.
