Product Information
The Art of Angelique Houtkamp.
Angelique Houtkamp is the inspirational Dutch tattoo mademoiselle of the contemporary art world. This fascinating monograph happily traverses the nostalgic, eclectic and beautifully rendered artistic wonderland of Angelique with a strong focus on her fine-art practice.
Classic old school tattoo imagery mix with mythological dreams, anthropomorphised critters, nautical iconography and haunting Hollywood romance by way of Angelique's distinctive painterly magic and eye for style. Watercolours and more recent oils glow from these pages.
A true celebration of Angelique's vision, charms and talents as a tattoo artist, painter, collector and personality. Wonderful new art, inspiration galore and swoon-worthy photos of Angelique at work...and at play!
Full colour reproductions, essays and commentary by Cindy Hoetmer, Gemma Jones, Liz McGrath, Sunny Buick and more...
