Pro-Illustration: A Guide to Professional Illustration Techniques

by Jill Bossert

Pro-Illustration, A Guide to Professional Techniques, Sponsored by the Society of Illustrators, reveals the working lives of nine masters of illustration. Each artist completes a single assignment from concept to finished art, discussing the technical steps concisely, but with an attempt to describe the mysteries of the creative process. To put the assignments into context, a extensive portfolio of the artists' past work is included. The many styles and approaches - from the most traditional to the extremely personal - provide the reader a wide variety of problem-solving stimuli. The book's striking design and clear photography reveal the illustrators' work to its best advantage. Professionals, students, and educators will find this book an inspirational source.
