Download or read book Drawing for Illustration written by Martin Sailsbury and published by Thames & Hudson. This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essential handbook explores the subject of drawing for illustration in-depth, with an emphasis on drawing as a skill and fundamental language that every illustrator should master. It aims to encourage students through examples and case studies, by showcasing the often-unseen world of draughtsmanship that underpins the finished graphic. From book illustration to graphic novels, caricatures to commercial design, it draws on contemporary sketchbooks, projects and historical examples to make the connection between the practice of drawing from observation and drawing from imagination. Martin Salisbury sets out by explaining the fundamentals of this exciting discipline, before outlining the basic principles of line, tone, composition and colour through inspiring examples. Different approaches to drawing including anecdotal, sequential and reportage are examined, to enable students to acquire their own personal visual language. Interviews with illustrators also provide invaluable insight into the creative process, as they outline their challenges and motivations, and what drawing personally means for them. Packed with visual inspiration, this book features detailed analysis of works by key illustrators from past and present including George Cruikshank, Egon Schiele, Ronald Searle and Sheila Robinson through to Laura Carlin, Alexis Deacon and Isabelle Arsenault, looking at the differing roles drawing plays in their particular illustrative languages and how styles have changed over time.
Download or read book Drawing for Art Students and Illustrators Classic Reprint written by Allen W. Seaby and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Drawing for Art Students and Illustrators" by Allen W. Seaby is a seminal piece on art study and the various techniques involved in creating the perfect illustrations. Seaby provides a detailed insight of the theoretical underpinnings of art forms coupled with various sample illustrations for the reader to appreciate common mistakes and myths around drawing. Spread across multiple chapters, Seaby opens with an enlightening introduction that establishes the rules within which every art student should work. For him, sense of proportion and originality are of prime importance in developing art. " Drawing for Art Students and Illustrators" contains dedicated sections on forms, tone studies, edge studies, related figures and landscaping among other types. Seaby closes with works of some of the well-known artists and tips for illustrators. While every section of the book is presented in vivid detail it is the section on drawing the human figure that merits specific mention as the author dedicates multiple chapters on the topic including preliminary notes, search for the perfect form as well as time sketching. Unlike many other books on art, " Drawing for Art Students and Illustrators" is not a straightforward 'how to' book. Seaby takes great pain in providing explanations and context to each of the aspects he explores in this work. Comparisons between various techniques including line drawing, charcoal and sketches as well as regional differences between the West and the east, specifically Japan make this book an interesting read not just for students of art but the casual enthusiasts as well. Not only will " Drawing for Art Students and Illustrators" enhance the abilities of proficient artists, it can also be an excellent starting point for amateurs and newcomers.

Download or read book Creative Perspective for Artists and Illustrators written by Ernest W. Watson and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 2012-07-31 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thought-provoking practical guide, a noted artist and educator demonstrates that learning to violate the rules of perspective (profitably) is as important for the practicing artist as learning the principles of perspective themselves. Only in this way can students free themselves from the constraints of tradition and find their own imaginative paths. However, it is vital that students first have a solid grasp of classical perspective before they can think about adapting it creatively. In presenting the principles of perspective drawing, Mr. Watson devotes a chapter each to step-by-step discussions of such topics as the picture plane, foreshortening and convergence, the circle, the cone, three-point perspective, universal perspective, figures in perspective, and much more. To illustrate his points he offers expert analysis of the works of such leading illustrators as John Atherton, V. Bobri, R. M. Chapin, Jr., Albert Dorne, Robert Fawcett, Constantin Guys, W. N. Hudson, Carl Roberts, Ben Stahl, and Aldren A. Watson, as well as drawings by Pieter de Hooch and Paul Cézanne. The result is a ground-breaking study that artists, illustrators, and draftsmen will find invaluable in learning to create works with convincing perspective. Ernest W. Watson taught at Pratt Institute for over 20 years, co-founded and served as editor-in-chief of the magazine American Artist, and co-founded the prestigious art publishing house of Watson-Guptill.
