Best known as one of America's top tattoo artists, Kat Von D began her climb to celebrity status on TLC's reality show, "Miami Ink." Viewers fell in love with the talented artist and before long cameras were rolling in her own shop in Hollywood, California. Now she is pursuing other ventures, setting the bar higher for other celebrity artists. The following is a brief recap of her various successes since her debut.
Books
In her biography, "The Tattoo Chronicles," Kat Von D satisfied the curiosity of many about life as a celebrity tattoo artist. Complete with personally photographed collections and sketches, this diary-formatted book revealed much about the woman behind the ink. One year later, she followed up with "High Voltage Tattoos," which detailed the nuances of modern tattoo culture.
Cosmetics
With women everywhere imitating Kat's look, it was only natural for the inked beauty to branch out into perfume and makeup. While many celebrities have tried their hand in this arena, few have achieved the level of quality achieved by Kat Von D. Working with Sephora, she created an expressive collection of long-lasting hues and precise tools, as well as her own perfumes; Sinner, Saint, and Poetica.
Art
As a high-profile artist, Kat's tattoos and drawings are admired by countless fans. In an effort to share the spotlight and draw appreciation to other artists, she opened Kat Von D's Wonderland Gallery in an empty store beside High Voltage tattoo shop. In addition to local artist exhibitions, the gallery features a shop where patrons can purchase stationary, jewelry, clothing, and more.
Clothing and Accessories
Taught to sew by her mother at an early age, Kat soon added yet another creative outlet to her repertoire; a fashion line. KVD Los Angeles is separated into two labels, White and Red, allowing for flirty or refined ensembles topped off by edgy shoes and accessories, ideal for fans and fashionistas alike.
Music
As if all this weren't enough, Kat Von D recently decided to delve in to the music world, utilizing yet another of her natural talents. Although no release date has been set, the female jack-of-all trades, inspired by years of training in classical piano, plans to attain an even higher form of celebrity by creating a dark and daring album of her own. In light of her many accomplishments, we can only expect the best from this newest Kat Von D project.
High Voltage Tattoo is a graphic perspective on today's global tattoo culture by Kat Von D, star of The Learning Channel's L.A. Ink and one of the most talented and popular artists working today. Designed in a style that is reminiscent of a handmade Gothic journal with its red padded cover, ornate typography, and parchmentlike pages, it throws the door wide open to tattooing culture in the way only an insider like Kat can. High Voltage Tattoo traces Kat's career as an artist, from early childhood influences to recent work, along with examples of what inspires her, information about the show and her shop, her sketches, and personal tattoos. The book goes deep into tattoo process and culture: readers can see up close the pigments, the tools, and the making of complex, even collaborative, tattoos.
With a foreword by Mötley Crüe's Nikki Sixx, the book features images and stories about celebrities, rockers, pro skaters, and everyday citizens, including Slayer's Kerry King, Anthrax's Scott Ian, Margaret Cho, Jackass' Bam Margera, David Letterman, and many others. It profiles and showcases the work of artists Kat has selected from all over the world, her interviews with people who have compelling tattoos and stories, and amazing images of extraordinary tattoo work. Numerous portfolios throughout the book showcase a range of relevant subjects, from the black and gray portrait work for which Kat is famous to a popular tattoo theme, such as the rose or biblical images. There is a knockout ten-page full-body spread of Kat clad in a yellow bikini and seven-inch, rhinestone studded red stilettos that catalogs in detail all her personal tattoos on her front, back, left, and right sides even her hands and head.
