Drawings For Tattoos Volume 3

Hardy Marks Publications is proud to announce the third volume in its Drawings for

Tattoos series, featuring more of the work of San Francisco’s Don Ed Hardy. The

focus of this volume is drawings done between 1955 and 1957, when Hardy (at age

10-12) was applying “tattoos” with eyeliner and colored pencils on neighborhood

kids. He and his partner in the “toy tattoo shop” were featured in a photo article in

his local paper, which is included in this book along with pictures his work.

Hardy produced hundreds of flash design sheets during this period, before going

onto art in other mediums for ten years. He returned to actual tattooing in 1967

after graduating art school, and went on to develop the cultural and artistic

potential of the medium, leading the world to its current popularity. This volume of

his Kiddy Flash shows the precocious roots of his life-long passion.
