DRAGONS OF HORIYOSHI III
Published by State of Grace Incorporated
State of Grace Inc.'s newest release, Dragons of Horiyoshi III Vol. 1, is the first edition in a pair of
drawing collections individually titled 'Ken and Kon.' These two collections are the Master's
interpretations and unique inspirations of his chosen theme of dragons. To delve into his subject matter,
Horiyoshi III carefully researched by studying famous works of artists as well as familiarizing himself
with the ancient "rules" of dragon composition.
Guided solely by intuition and the "unspoken advice" of his predecessors, he approaches many concepts
of dragon imagery in Japanese culture and even includes studies of individual elements such as the talons.
Profoundly adept with a brush pen, the Master explores the subject with finesse and the proficiency of a
lifetime of practice.
Many of the drawings are penned with tattoos in mind and their simplicity lends perfectly to tattoo motif.
This book is a must-have for any artist interested in furthering their knowledge of dragons as well as a
stellar addition to any collectors' library of tattoo designs. This is a limited run, while supplies last.
Softcover, 205 pages, volume 1 of 2.
