Titine K-Leu pays homage to the golden era of American carnival tattooing in her paintings. Drawing from collectible photographs, she captures the flair of famous sideshow acts Artoria and Edith Burchett (who traveled in the 1920s and 30s) and the inimitable Bowery tattoo legend Charlie Wagner. These historical paintings are rich with classic tattoo imagery and bring contemporary flare to the glory years of American circus life. [Ink Butter]
