ARE THERE REFERENCES ABOUT TATTOOS I COULD LOOK UP?
When I first started looking around for references about tattoos, all I
found were scholarly journal articles about how juvenile delinquents and
prisoners had tattoos, or how tattoos were an indicator for psychosis. I
*knew* there had to be more stuff out there. However, a quick look
through the Lexis/Nexis online (fee-based) database revealed *thousands*
of RECENT citations on bodyart. When a mainstream comic strip like
"Cathy" mentions a navel ring, you are apt to get a lot of forgettable
articles.
I eventually plan to pare this list down to a quality annotated
bibliography. I also plan to include in this bibliography a listing of
sources that you could use for ideas on various designs.
Subject: TATTOOS IN MOVIES/VIDEOS
This is not a comprehensive list, and does not include videos that are
produced for tattoo conventions; but rather, easily accessible movies
and videos where tattoos are used in some significant form. This
wonderful movie bibliography was compiled by Carl Shapiro
(carl@lvsun.COM) unless otherwise noted:
Tattoos play minor, but sometimes interesting, roles in these movies:
"Blues Brothers". John Belushi, Dan Akroyd
Reviewer: Ray Hamel (hamel@primate.wisc.edu)
-The brothers have their names tattooed on their knuckles.
"Cape Fear" (1991). Robert De Niro, Nick Nolte.
-A tattooed psychopath preys on a Southern lawyer and his family.
"Double Exposure" (1987). Mark Hennessy, Scott King.
-2 photographers turn sleuth after taking a picture of a tattooed
blonde.
"The Jigsaw Murders" (1989). Chad Everett, Michelle Johnson.
-A police detective and a doctor solve a gruesome mystery with a puzzle
and tattoo as clues.
"Lethal Weapon" Mel Gibson
Reviewer: A.D.C.Elly (A.D.C.Elly@bnr.co.uk)
-The cops recognise that one of the men they're after is a "Special
Forces" man because a little boy saw his tattoo (which matches the one
Riggs got when he was Special Forces).
"Man Against the Mob: The Chinatown Murders" (1989). George Peppard,
Ursula Andress.
-Odd tattoos on corpses lead a detective to a Los Angeles nightclub.
"Night of the Hunter" (1991). Richard Chamberlain, Diana Scarwid.
-A crook's family is prey to a preacher who has "LOVE" and "HATE"
knuckle tattoos.
"Night of the Hunter" (1955). Robert Mitchum, Shelley Winters
-Original (and much better) version of above. Mitchum is fantastic;
very scary.
"Once were warriors" (1994). Rena Owen, Temuera Morrison, Mamaengaroa
Kerr-Bell
- Hailed by critics everywhere, this independent New Zealand film
released by Communicado film distributed by Fine Line Features, tells a
bittersweet tale of a Maori family renched apart by alcoholism and
abuse. At the core is Beth Heke, whose desire to save her family serves
as the center of this tale. Authentic native Maori tattoos seen
throughout the film.
"The Phoenix" (1992). Jamie Summers, E.Z. Rider.
-Tattoo master seeks perfect canvas.
"Poison Ivy" has a scene about it
Reviewer: Abu (jdaley@scf.usc.edu)
"Raising Arizona". Nicholas Cage.
Reviewer: Todd Liebenow (squonk@camelot.bradley.edu)
-Cage's character has a tattoo of a Woody Woodpecker head on his arm. At
the end of the movie when he's fighting the lone biker of the apoclypse
we find out that the biker has the same tattoo. However, we never find
out what all this means.
"Romper Stomper" (1993). Distributed by Seon Films, made by
Film Victoria.
Reviewer: Pierre Honeyman (pierre@amisk.cs.ualberta.ca)
A love story among tattooed skinheads, there are some very good tattoos
in this movies, although the racist content may offend some viewers. The
movie is not about racism.
"Sonny Boy" * (1990). David Carradine, Paul L. Smith.
-A demented brute and his hairy tattooed wife lose control of their
wild child, bred to kill.
"Tales from the Crypt"
Contributor: Abu (jdaley@scf.usc.edu)
-There's an episode with Tia Carrera about a guy whose tattoo
gets...under his skin.
"Tattoo Chase" (1989). F. Richards Ford, Michael Gregory.
-An heir has 60 days to find the treasure-map tattoo on one of his
father's global girlfriends.
"The Tattooed Stranger" (1950). John Miles, Patricia White.
-A New York police detective tracks down a killer using a tattoo clue.
They play major roles in these movies:
"Charles Gatewood's Tattoo San Francisco" (1988). San Francisco, CA :
Flash Video. 60 min.
Review: Short segments on tattoo enthusiasts and artists in the Bay
Area. Vyvyn Lazonga and Dick Tome are interviewed, as well as others. If
you liked the cover of _Modern Primitives_, its model is interviewed in
here as well. Production quality (lighting, editing, etc.) will not win
any Academy Awards, but the information contained is interesting.
Definitely worth renting, though probably not worth buying.
"The Illustrated Man" (1969). Rod Steiger, Claire Bloom.
-Wonderful adaptation of Ray Bradbury's novel about a man whose body
tattoos depict actual events, all shown in flashback and flash-forward.
"Irezumi" (Spirit of Tattoo) (1985). Masayo Utsonomiya, Tomisaburo
Wakayama, Yuhsuke Takita, Masaki Kyomoto, Harue Kyo, Naomi
Shiraishi, Taiji, Tonoyama.
-In this exquisitely beautiful Japanese film, a young woman consents to
her lover's wish to have her tattooed, and fulfills the cycle of the
tattoo master's life.
Notes from Lani: I got quite a bit more out of this movie because I
didn't need the subtitles. Some of the Japanese nuances and symbolism is
lost to a Western audience. Some of the more important points to note
while watching this film:
The seasons are one of the most common themes in Japanese literature,
much like the use of colors to represent themes in Western literature.
Examples in this film:
-Both the master's ex-wife and son had names that started with "Haru."
In Japanese, this means "Spring." The importance of this is obvious--he
had both of them earlier in life, when he was still in his spring.
-On the other hand, the continuous references to snow refer to the
closing of his life: the snow storm in the first scene in the movie; of
his telling the main character that "snowflakes would look good on your
back;" the symbol of the Japanese snow flake that leads to the
unraveling of his life; and the snowflake books.
Other symbols and themes liberally sprinkled through the film:
-Harutsune, the son, serves as a perfect amalgamation of the
parents--his backpiece is done by his mother, while his full front piece
is done by the father.
-The theme of empowerment and independence is once again present here,
as in Tanizaki Jun'ichiro's _Shisei_, the short story about the young
woman who gets a large spider on her back.
-The theme of the complete cycle is repeated throughout:
--The change of the seasons representing the cycle of life and death
(reminiscent of _Charlotte's Web_)
--The woman is urged to get a tattoo by the master's wife.
--The cycle after death is complete upon the last prick.
"Signatures of the soul, tattooing" (1984). Peter Fonda. Producer Geoff
Steven. New York, NY : Filmakers Library
-Peter Fonda explores the social history of tattooing, both
primitive and modern, discussing its use as ornament, badge, and
personal statement. Practitioners of the art from the Pacific Islands,
California, and Japan discuss the aesthetics of the art.
"Tattoo" Maude Adams
-A tattoo artist obsessed with a professional model abducts her and
tattoos her entire body.

Review: If you are interested in bodyart as a whole beyond tattoos, this
is the one book that you should have in your reference collection. The
book is a collection of interviews and write-ups about a very wide
spectrum, including the opener on Fakir Musafar (he is THE bodyart god,
IMHO), sword swallowing, Polynesian tattoos, pierces, cuttings, etc. The
section on body piercing complements Ardvark's FAQ, and has
illustrations on exactly WHERE those darned genital pierces are supposed
to go. Important note: This book is not for the faint-at-heart. Some of
the information and text contained are very graphic--an assumption can
be made that those wanting to read the book are already USED to small
tattoos and nipple pierces. There is a graphic photo of a bifurcated
penis, for example. You have been duly warned.

Stewart, Samuel. Bad Boys and Tough Tattoos: A Social History of the
Tattoo with Gangs, Sailors, and Street-Corner Punks. (1950-1965).
Review by Lance Bailey (zaphod@bcu.ubc.ca):
Instead of a well-written mature examination of tattoos and society,
we instead find Steward's full of misconceptions, incorrect facts and a
dedication to link tattoos and gay sex.
Presented as a formal study, Stewart claims that "it is perhaps the
only volume on tattooing not dependent on tattoo photographs to boost
sales." He however commits one of the writer's worst crimes by talking
down to the reader.
The book is sprinkled liberally with street slang instead of the
language of a serious study. Worse, however is the gross inaccuracies in
the book. Two examples:
1: Through out the book Steward presents himself, or rather his
pseudonym Phil Sparrow, as the best tattooist in Chicago whilst he
practised there. His comments on tattoos become amusing in this light
and on "Famous tattoos" he comments: "The second of the legendary
tattoos is a 'pack of hounds chasing a fox down across a person's back,'
with the fox disapearing in the a convenient burrow...At any rate,
although thousands of persons have said they have seen such a tattoo, it
is hardly reasonable that I should never have seen one in 18 years and
over a hundred persons." Well, Mr Sparrow should pick up a copy of "Art,
sex, and symbol: the mystery of tattooing (1986)" which has several
pictures of tattoos on that very theme.
2: In his section on tattooing the drunk, he says he did not mind
working on someone who'd had a few drinks for courage, but the truly
intoxicated should not be tattooed because "a drunk cannot sit
still...he is very likely to get sick suddenly... [and] the choice of
design selected was regretted as soon as they became sober. Steward
seems to be completely ignorant of the fact that alcohol is an
anti-coagulant and a single beer can make someone bleed like a stuck
pig.

CELTIC ART : THE METHODS OF CONSTRUCTION, by George Bain
New York, Dover Publications [1973] 159 p. illus. 31 cm. Reprint of the
1951 ed. published by W. MacLellan, Glasgow. ISBN: 0486229238
Review: Lavishly illustrated with line drawings and photographs. This is
the grand original that has inspired the Celtic revival and is an
excellent start for understanding the creation of knotworks and braids.
Not an easy method to master, but the best single resource book
available.
CELTIC KNOTWORK, by Ian Mackintosh Bain
Constable 1986, 115 p., 8"x10", paper. ISBN 0-09-469810-4
If his father's work confuses you (above), take heart and try this. He
teaches a method for creating knotworks in a grid that is surely close
to the method used in the past.
[Currently available as: Celtic knotwork / Iain Bain. New York :
Sterling Pub. Co., 1992. 115 p. : ill. (some col.) ; 25 cm. ISBN:

CELTIC KEY PATTERNS, by Ian Bain
ISBN 0-09-471820-2, Constable 1993, 88 pages, 8"x10", paperbound
The definitive text for learning how to create and reproduce the
interlocking key geometric patterns.
[May be available as: Celtic key patterns / Iain Bain. New York:Sterling

THE LINDISFARNE GOSPEL, introduction by Janet Backhouse
ISBN 0-7148-2461-5, Department of Manuscripts, British Library
illuminated pages reproduced in color, paperbound
The second most influential of the ancient manuscripts from the 9th
century .Beautiful inspiration, not possible to trace patterns because
they are so tiny, but colors are vivid.
THE BOOK OF KELLS : SELECTED PLATES IN FULL COLOR, Blanche Cirker,
editor
New York : Dover Publications, c1982. 32 p. : col. ill. ; 31 cm. ISBN:
0486243451 (pbk.)
Review: An inspirational source, provides a reality check on the scale
and intricacy of the original 9th century masterpiece. Much too
miniscule in scale to be of use for tracing out patterns, but awe
inspiring to study. Of particular use for coloring ideas.
CELTIC DESIGNS AND MOTIFS, by Courtney Davis
New York : Dover, 1991. 44 p. : chiefly ill. ; 28 cm. ISBN: 0486267180
(pbk.) : $3.95
Excellent flash source.Many knotwork and zoomorphic designs.
CELTIC STAINED GLASS COLORING BOOK, by Courtney Davis
New York : Dover, 1993. 16 p. : chiefly ill. ; 28 cm. ISBN 048627456X
(pbk.)
Possible flash source. They lend themselves well to reproduction on a
large scale, heavy black linework very well composed.
CELTIC IRON-ON TRANSFER PATTERNS, by Courtney Davis
New York : Dover . 48 p. : 65 transfer patterns, 28 cm. ISBN 0486260593
(pbk.)
Excellent flash source. Armbands, knotworks, zoomorphics, all ready to
go as stencils on tissue paper.
THE ART OF CELTIA, by Courtney Davis
London : Blandford, 1993. 128 p. :ill. (some col.) ; 29 cm. ISBN:
0713723092
Evocative use of traditional Celtic artforms in superb artwork.
Discussions of symbolism and the historic signifigance of the designs.
Very inspiring.
CELTIC MANDALAS, by Courtney Davis, with text by Helena Paterson
London : Blandford, 1994, 96 p. : ill. (some col.) ; 29 cm. ISBN
0713723890 (pbk.)
Beautiful use of Celtic motifs in symbolic art, discussions of Celtic
mythology and zodiac signs.
CELTIC BORDERS AND DECORATION, by Courtney Davis, text by Helena
Paterson.
London : Blandford ; New York, NY : Distributed in the United States by
Sterling Pub. Co., 1992. 95 p. : ill. ; 28 cm. ISBN: 0713723300
Wonderful guide to bands, braids, and designs suitable for expansion
into armbands, anklets etc.
CELTIC ART SOURCE BOOK, by Courtney Davis
London ; New York : Blandford : Distributed in the United States by
Sterling Publishing Co, 1988. [128] p. : chiefly ill. (some col.) ; 26
cm. ISBN: 0713719826
The ONLY negative thing I can say about this inspirational work is that
it will raise the expectations of tattoo clients too high for what can
reasonably be accomplished in the skin format. Any of these designs
could translate, but many only at backpiece scale. For the use of color
examples alone it stands out as a must-have in any Celtic art library.
THE BOOK OF CONQUESTS, by Jim Fitzpatrick
Dutton : 1978. ISBN 0525475117 (pbk.)
Beautiful use of Celtic design motifs in service of storytelling,
bringing the tales of the Old Ones alive. Possibly also available: NUADA
OF THE SILVER ARM.
ART OF THE CELTS : FROM 700 BC TO THE CELTIC REVIVAL, by Lloyd &
Jennifer Laing
London : Thames and Hudson, c1992. 216 p. : ill. (some col.) ; 21 cm.
ISBN: 0500202567
More of a text for historical grounding.
159 CELTIC DESIGNS, by Amy Lusebrink
New York : Dover, 1988. 48 p. : chiefly ill. ; 28 cm. ISBN 0486276880
(pbk.)
Excellent flash source. Unfortunately rather poorly drawn, most would
have to be re-drawn for precision before being used as a tattoo stencil.
CELTIC DESIGN : A BEGINNER'S MANUAL, by Aidan Meehan
Thames & Hudson , 258 illustrations. ISBN 0500276293 (pbk.)
If you want to begin to draw your own braids, this is the text.

Meehan

Throughout time, we can see how we have been carefully conditioned coming to this point where we are on the verge of a cashless society. Did you know that Jesus foretold of this event almost 2,000 years ago?
In Revelation 13:16-18, it states,
"He (the false prophet who deceives many by his miracles--Revelation 19:20) causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666."
Referring to the last generation, this could only be speaking of a cashless society. Why's that? Revelation 13:17 tells us that we cannot buy or sell unless we receive the mark of the beast. If physical money was still in use, we could buy or sell with one another without receiving the mark. This would contradict scripture that states we need the mark to buy or sell!
These verses could not be referring to something purely spiritual as scripture references two physical locations (our right hand or forehead) stating the mark will be on one "OR" the other. If this mark was purely spiritual, it would indicate both places, or one--not one OR the other!
This is where it comes together. It is shocking how accurate the Bible is concerning the implantable RFID microchip. Here are notes from a man named Carl Sanders who worked with a team of engineers to help develop this RFID chip:
"Carl Sanders sat in seventeen New World Order meetings with heads-of-state officials such as Henry Kissinger and Bob Gates of the C.I.A. to discuss plans on how to bring about this one-world system. The government commissioned Carl Sanders to design a microchip for identifying and controlling the peoples of the world—a microchip that could be inserted under the skin with a hypodermic needle (a quick, convenient method that would be gradually accepted by society).
Carl Sanders, with a team of engineers behind him, with U.S. grant monies supplied by tax dollars, took on this project and designed a microchip that is powered by a lithium battery, rechargeable through the temperature changes in our skin. Without the knowledge of the Bible (Brother Sanders was not a Christian at the time), these engineers spent one-and-a-half-million dollars doing research on the best and most convenient place to have the microchip inserted.
Guess what? These researchers found that the forehead and the back of the hand (the two places the Bible says the mark will go) are not just the most convenient places, but are also the only viable places for rapid, consistent temperature changes in the skin to recharge the lithium battery. The microchip is approximately seven millimeters in length, .75 millimeters in diameter, about the size of a grain of rice. It is capable of storing pages upon pages of information about you. All your general history, work history, criminal record, health history, and financial data can be stored on this chip.
Brother Sanders believes that this microchip, which he regretfully helped design, is the “mark” spoken about in Revelation 13:16–18. The original Greek word for “mark” is “charagma,” which means a “scratch or etching.” It is also interesting to note that the number 666 is actually a word in the original Greek. The word is “chi xi stigma,” with the last part, “stigma,” also meaning “to stick or prick.” Carl believes this is referring to a hypodermic needle when they poke into the skin to inject the microchip."
Mr. Sanders asked a doctor what would happen if the lithium contained within the RFID microchip leaked into the body. The doctor replied by saying a terrible sore would appe (...)
