2.0 out of 5 stars
Disappointed...,

This review is from: Treasury of Japanese Designs and Motifs for Artists and Craftsmen (Dover Pictorial Archive) (Paperback)
I thought it was a collection of original Japanese designs. The editor apparently took it upon herself to redraw them, and that is what's contained herein. The designs end up diminished, weaker than the traditional crisp oriental linework. I would return it if possible. Very disappointed.

3.0 out of 5 stars
a decent reference for tattooing,
By steven may (kent, ohio United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Treasury of Japanese Designs and Motifs for Artists and Craftsmen (Dover Pictorial Archive) (Paperback)
If quanity and quick reference for tattooing is what you're looking for, look no further. Be warned though the illustrations are pretty weak in a lot of areas, so be ready to redraw! But there are tons of floral designs (especially lotus) and simple designs that are invaluable for a tattooer. So as far as an excellent source on traditional japanese art it is not, but it could be handy in the shop.
