ICHIBAY – Lines and Drawings
ICHIBAY, a globally active and internationally acclaimed artist, has released "Lines and Drawings".
The book is a unique approach to art and a travel toolbook in a unique set.
The art book is a thick hardcover book of over 300 pages containing thousands of drawings. The classic subjects of Japanese tattoo designs are depicted in countless different poses, movements, and compositions of all kinds. It is useful when you want to take your time in the studio to develop your ideas.
The Travel Toolbook is a booklet containing hundreds of line drawings of carp, tigers, dragons, phoenixes, Chinese lions, flowers, prawns and masks. The soft cover makes it lightweight and practical to carry with you anywhere in Japan or abroad.
It is obvious to anyone who looks at the line drawings and drawings in this book that it is not simply a catalog of sketches of numerous Japanese tattoos. With the placement of the tattoos on the body in mind, the beautiful balance, the strength of the lines, and the visually impactful color schemes, each piece is the result of ICHIBAY's finely honed aesthetic eye, drawn from many years of experience.
From simple yet difficult designs to complex movements and difficult subjects, this book will be a longtime favorite as a "tiger's volume" for those who want to add originality and ingenuity to the basics of Japanese tattooing.
