The ultimate theoretical and practical textbook that delves deeply into the mechanisms of color and light!
Color and light are very important themes in illustration. This book by Charlie Pickard goes a step further and digs deeper into each one, explaining them in detail.
The first half, the theory chapter, explains technical terminology related to color, color theory, types of light, and the interactions between various types of light and matter. With a deeper understanding of hue, value, and saturation, you’ll be able to better incorporate light and shade to create the shapes and textures you desire.
The practical chapter in the second half includes how-tos by popular overseas illustrators. Each artist will explain in detail how they can apply the knowledge they learned in the first half of the book to their illustrations.
From this book, you will gain the knowledge to expand your expression in all forms of art, whether digital or analog.
