Welcome to Cool Tattoo Books!
Some tattoos deserve more than a scroll-past on social media. They deserve to be printed, held, and kept on a shelf for years.
Cool Tattoo Books is a series of collectible print books celebrating the best tattoo work out there. Some volumes will showcase great tattoos across every style, and others will dive deep into a single theme. No interviews, no long write-ups. Just incredible art, curated by people who love it.
Below is our first release, Legendary: The Life of Big Sleeps. It shows the level of work we're looking for and the quality you can expect when your art lands in one of our books.
How it works
Each book features 100 artists. To be considered, submit 5–7 of your best tattoos. If you're selected, 3–5 of those pieces will appear on your own dedicated artist page.
Think you've got what it takes? Show us your best work.
