Tattoo artist and illustrator Joe Capobianco has unwittingly created a homage to the Suicide Girls -- an art book dedicated to America's long time obsession: cheesecake...of the pin-up variety. What's Not to Like? is a compilation of illustrations that have graced skin and canvas filled with pages of pouty lips and Double-Ds. But beyond it's obvious sex appeal, the book's artistry shows just why Joe Capobianco has been called one of the world's best tattooers by trade magazines worldwide.

Joe kicks ass! I would recomend anyone that's into tattoos or has tattoos already to be tattooed by him. I'm very satisfied with the sleeve he did for me! I have many other projects for him to do on me but I have lots of laser to do first! Check him out at hopegallerytattoo.com

Joe and I talked for a half an hour at the London convention but I focused the Q&A on the new book and pin-up aspect.

One of the things we discussed was his artwork for the Rides of Passage exhibit. His painted snowboard is one of my favorites:

Joe is one of the most down to earth tattooer i have ever met, and had the pleasure to be tattooed by.
Well worth the trip to the North East.. I know cause i made it.
He finished my pin-up chick tied to a cherry on my ribs there.

Phew! That could've been a double law suit!

You know you're the hottest when someone has a tattoo of you on them. Then again, I have seen a Clay Aiken tribute tattoo.

Hey Marisa, a great intervieuw with a great artist!!
Like Joe´s art, and he is a good guy, sometimes it´s soo hard for some artists just to say "Hello", but Joe don´t have problems with that...
How was The London Tattoo Convention?
Looks even crowdier than last year!!
Take care...
