Known for his distinct illustrative Japanese style and particularly for his signature peony tattoos, Elliott Wells presents the Japanese Vol. 1 stamp set for Procreate. Containing a wide array of motifs and subjects, Elliott’s designs are highly informed by the aesthetic tradition of irezumi, but represent years of individual stylistic iteration, heavily influenced by horror tattoos and Neo-Japanese designs.
Featured prominently in this set, the peonies and chrysanthemums are presented with full petal and leaf options, as well as individual components, so you can use them as either readily available modern Japanese flash, or when you want to add these floral elements to larger works.
Japanese Vol. 1 also includes 20 snake options, with 10 additional snake heads, so you can select the one that achieves the balance and flow critical to any Japanese composition. Elliott also provides stylized versions of several other traditional Japanese tattoo subjects, like Noh masks, Hannya, skull, Tengu, and Fudo-Myo-o designs. By using these in combination or with the other Japanese sets, you have the opportunity to add stylistic variation to your Japanese designs, as well as make your own aesthetic choices in a range from traditionalist to much more modern.
An exclusive component of each of the Japanese sets on Tattoo Smart, this set contains 12 large scale tattoo templates featuring background motifs like clouds and water. Use the templates as a guide to create layouts with the stamps include in the set, or as the basis for your own Japanese designs.
