This project is cheekily named the French Kiss Tattoo Project, because friends and tattoo artists John Stone, Tiwan, and El Bent brought together 123 master tattoo artists from around the world to collaborate in pairs to explore the broad stylistic approaches of tattoo art. The result is a fresh collection of tattoo flash ranging in style from traditional and photorealism to newschool and Japanese tattooing. With nearly 200 pieces of flash in total, this title invites enthusiasts to a virtual tattoo shop or tattoo convention to find unique pieces with distinctive designs. After graduating with a master's degree in design, John Stone worked for Cartier for 10 years. During art events, he met tattoo artist Big Cyrus, who introduced him to the art of tattooing. In 2015, he completed his apprenticeship at Pardon Maman and joined the Parisian boutique Tribal Act a few years later. His style is effective and colorful, modern and respectful of traditional American tattoo codes. He now lives and works on the north coast of Brittany. Tiwan has been a tattoo artist since 2015 and runs Spirit Tattoo Rennes in Brittany. After a two-year apprenticeship there, he delved into different styles before specializing in traditional American. Offering a wider palette of colors while paying attention to detail, Tiwan presents a modern reinterpretation of this heritage. After working as a graphic designer, El Bent met a tattooer in Portugal who told him he should start learning the craft. He did so in Paris and started to work in a tattoo shop. Five years later he opened his own parlor, True Love, which is celebrating its 11th anniversary. ISBN 978-0-7643-7035-9
