If one thing is for sure the tattoos in Home Made Tattoos Rule didn’t come from bubblegum packets. As a 96-page photographic tribute to both the art and the philosophy behind home-made inking, Jeppe’s book is an intriguing exploration into a brave, eye-watering world that few know anything about.

By looking outside the conventional notion of tattooing Home Made Tattoos Rule features all walks of life from mums to musicians, punks to painters and designers to dockers. With a page dedicated to each individual, this book captures the freedom, spontaneity and stylistic elements that bind this sub-sub-culture together. As this book will tell you, ‘home made is where the heart is’.
