Eleeza. Магический реализм Элизы Ивановой. Артбук

by Eliza Ivanova, Элиза Иванова, Вера Антонова (Translator)

Яркая, экспрессивная и красивая книга, наполненная иллюстрациями удивительной художницы.

Элиза Иванова родилась в Болгарии и переехала в США, чтобы окончить Калифорнийский институт искусств. Живет в Сан-Франциско, где создала большую часть произведений, которые можно увидеть на этих страницах. Ее стиль, сложившийся под влиянием работы с анимацией, отличают непринужденность и динамичность, а также самобытность и богатство деталей.

Эта книга — не просто великолепная подборка старых и новых иллюстраций Элизы, это приглашение в ее творческий мир. Вы заглянете в студию художницы, чтобы осмотреть ее рабочее место и любимые инструменты. Элиза также поделится своими техниками рисования в пошаговых уроках и покажет, как добивается легкости и динамики, пронизывающих ее работы. Технические советы и мудрые слова автора о жизни и творчестве пригодятся как начинающим, так и опытным художникам.

I'm a longtime fan of Eliza's work and instantly backed her book on Kickstarter when I heard about it. I'm not at all a fan of artbooks and that's why I was so happy to find out that Eliza decided to NOT make another artbook but instead this compendium of her workflow and way of thinking. I'm truly grateful that she shares her creative and technical process with her audience in this way.

I even got a book with signature, just for the sake of it ;)

I don’t normally rate art books on here because I don’t consider it reading more than eye candy. But I LOVED Eliza’s words to her fellow artist. There is enough beautifully written narrative in here that it deserves a rating and review.

The artwork is of course knock your socks off gorgeous but it’s Eliza’s down to earth words that bring this book home. There is also amazingly helpful tutorials and insight in her work! As a long time follower of this artist it was great to get some insight on her work! And there is so much of it! Every page provides lengthy yet precious insight. So this is not simply an art book, but a beautifully written narrative.

Even me, a stay at home mom of 3, with little time and who generally likes to draw cutesy animals gets something out of this! I definitely recommend to all artists! This will be a cherished addition to my art book collection!

An amazing book!
I enjoyed it so much and it left me with tremendous amounts of inspiration and confidence. I can't wait to put some of the things i learned to practice.
I'm a big fan of Eliza's work and the book is such a treasure.
So worth it!

Got this in the mail with her first two “Raw Materials” books and tore through all three in one day. The art books are bursting with cool concepts and beautiful drawings, and her newest book is an incredible insight into her process and journey. 10/10 would recommend highly.

Fantastic art book containing invaluable insights from the artist as well as gorgeous reproductions of the work. The insights and process demonstrations within would be valuable and interesting to read for appreciators of art as well as for professionals and students.
