One of the art projects a fellow teacher of mine does is playing card drawings and sketches. I’m dying to show her the new Sketch Card Mania book from Impact and artist/writers Randy Martinez and Denise Vasquez. She will be blown away!Inside, the creative team leads readers through a series of demonstrations on creating Sketch Card art using a huge variety of techniques-even computer. Everything from cowboys to aliens (isn’t that a movie?) are represented. Look for lots of pencil, ink, paint, digital and more Sketch Cards representing all genres of cartooning, realistic renderings, abstracts and digital.
The book even includes nine Artist and Sketch It Yourself Cards. So what are you waiting for? It’s time to get to work!
Dragons are everywhere. You see them in drawings, paintings, toys, fashions, movies and every other type of popular culture collectible and mass media venue.
Impact presents DragonWorld that contains 120 dragons as drawn by 49 international artists.
Every conceivable type of dragon is drawn in a myriad of styles and media. Artist bios are included, along with how they created their own unique dragon. Sketches and preliminary idea are included along with helpful hints on how to create your own dragon(s).
The Explorer's Guide To Drawing Fantasy Creatures takes the dragon theme one step further by introducing artists to other fantasy creatures.Inside the book, by Emily Fiegenschuh, pages are brimming with full color and black and white illustrations, sketches and studies of various mythological and imaginary creatures. Handy photo references, artist notes and observations provide plenty of inspiration and information for drawing creatures from land, sea and air.
