Ed Hardy and His Incredible Art of Tattoo

 

Ed Hardy has been very influential in helping tattoo art to its full potential, which found him imbibe and fuse traditional Japanese aesthetics and art with western historical art form along with surf and motorcycle culture, hot-rod art, and Californian funk, which ultimately fanned the late last century tattoo explosion. Exploration of the wide cultural and visual gamut of Ed Hardy’s multiple influences and his profound involvement within the spectrum of his influences, tattooing the Invisible Man heralded an authoritative and exceptionally tremendous rise of this form of bodywork.

In no time, Ed was being written about everywhere, in magazines as well as fashion and tattooing journals. Beginning from then, Ed Hardy and his works have come to be recognized over the entire world of tattooing as examples of finest Japanese style of work that existed. The tattoos he created and picked up along the way were rightfully called as ultimate local souvenirs, an ineradicably etched map on the sands of time.

Ed Hardy was particularly captivated by bigger tattoos; big enough to cover your body; much the sign of a man that was disinterested by petty things of life. Clearly, he was not only influenced by the Japanese style of full body tattooing but was also showing the signs of things to come in the future. He was and is the best tattoo artist and an even bigger inspiration to those who are learning the art. Before I took Ed seriously, I had a wrong notion, which I still repent that he was for blacks. But all of it changed when I dug into books, hordes of them, and did lots of reading and talked to people who knew him, and saw hundreds of thousands of his works or their pictures.

Don Ed Hardy, native of California, was driven to make it up as a tattoo artist very early in his life and he began professionally tattooing from 1967. Although his work was nothing short of being able to be called as something special, I noticed some people not ready to credit him for his and arguing in a lousy fashion, but this was when I was in LA last time in the year 1972.

Like Christian Audigier, who influenced Ed Hardy in every sphere of his professional life, it was Ed that was my biggest influence, nonetheless, in every sphere of my life. You may find it a bit untrue, but this fascination for him must have been omni present in my psyche and that the chance to study his work only made the obvious thing faster.

Ed was born in 1945 in Iowa and he is the first tattoo artist from the western world to have brought the Japanese aesthetics to his America. Before concluding, I tell you about his exemplary studiousness; he used to note down everything that fascinated him, the small stories, African traditional art, and what not; all of these can be seen culminating in his works. Christian Audigier may have influenced his profession but Ed was born gifted to the core, which has what prompted Audigier to join forces with him.
