I’m really excited to present an issue on tattoo ideas and sketches. The material in issue 4 will ultimately become part of the artists’ future flash books, remain in ephemeral sketch form, or morph into some new meaning on someone’s skin. Tattoos are a fascinating idea to me for a digest zine, because the images presented here exist as a drawing on a piece of paper – they are inherently a pre-existing idea; these ideas will gain the most resonance and permanence when tattooed, and will vary with each iteration on different skin (or the medium for the artist).
Weird Babes Digest Zines aim to create a forum where artists can release ideas into the world that they feel may not be ready, without the pressure of needing it to be ready. Taking comfort in what is not yet fully realized. Digest zines highlight works-in-progress, thoughts-in-process, digest ideas.
