New York based tattoo artist and visual creative, Scott Campbell, has released a book of his work in conjunction with [OHWOW](http://oh-wow.com/?ref=protein.xyz). Entitled, ‘If You Don’t Belong, Don't Be Long,’ it features text by Al Moran and Justin Theroux, as well as photography by Terry Richardson.

Famed as much now for his eccentric behavior (eg. burning his own exhibition in Mexico) as much as for his work; his roster of celebrity clients, as well as collaborations with Marc Jacobs have earned him his own celebrity status. His exhibitions have seen him both sculpting intricate shapes into wads of uncut US currency, and presenting delicate watercolours. This book celebrates the duality of his career as both a fine artist and a tattooist, and explores how his ink work informs his art work.

Dropping in February, it’s available through [Rizzoli](http://www.rizzoliusa.com/book.php?isbn=9780789324962&ref=protein.xyz).
