Bola Tattoo – How I Do It

How I Do It is not just an illustrated SKETCHBOOK of ornaments, more than that it was made based on the daily studies that I practice on the ornamental theme, an immersion in what it is about possibilities to be explored in ornaments, with their most varied forms of creations and applications, from a simple incomplete circle (spiral), to a gigantic facade full of shapes.
How I Do It, the title given to this SKETCHBOOK, has as its main objective to show some ways that I found to study and practice from the simplest constructions to the most complex ornate compositions. Knowing a little about the history of the emergence of ornaments made me understand more about these fantastic forms that led me to create arts beyond Tattooing, as in the case of engraving (metal engraving technique with a burin) among many other techniques.
Presenting to you “How I do it” is to show that there are many ways to study-mos about the art we want to develop, finding your path is extremely important in learning and evolution and so each of you will find your “HOW I DO IT”!
That said, I wish you all much success in your studies and that they bring you the same feeling of pleasure and fulfillment that this world of ornaments has brought me.
