Prism: The Art Journey of Cosmic Spectrum

by Cosmic Spectrum, Yana Bogatch

The Art of Cosmic Spectrum features the characters, worlds, and stories created by artist Yana Bogatch aka Cosmic Spectrum.  Previously, she has self-published a graphic novel and two art books. Now, The  a rt of Cosmic Spectrum showcases the artist’s entire story and demonstrates the development of her style and career, as well as brand new art and tutorial content. With character art and comics being her specialty, the book features an array of tips and techniques for drawing anatomy, gesture, and character details. 
Sketchbook pages reveal Yana’s experience in animation and storyboarding; her use of both traditional and digital tools reveals the artist’s versatility. Storytelling and connecting with other people are vital to the artist, and readers will be fascinated to discover how she infuses her art with these motivations. Another way in which she shares her art is through her shop, where creativity and commercial success meet. 
Yana’s energy, enthusiasm, and entrepreneurial spirit will encourage readers looking for way to transform their passion for art into a viable career while staying true to their style. The Art of Cosmic Spectrum is the creative inspiration and springboard every character artist needs.

Did I read this from cover to cover? No but i looked at and admired all of the images and process that were shown throughout this book.
I find art books challenging to read because I buy the books to support the artist and have a collection of their artworks. Do I read the words within? Sometimes, here and there. I don't see this book or books like it as a type of book that you intentionally read from cover to cover. But rather something that you pick up here and there and read what interests you at that moment.
This book is one that I will show to aspiring artists and those interested in the craft.

3.5⭐️ this connection between a reader and an author pouring their life onto a page is something that cannot be fabricated. i’ve always seen artists through rose-colored lenses, perceiving them as perfect and have their ducks in a row, growing up experienced and in an supportive environment, but this shows me that that’s not always the case. i saw myself through these events, and i can now see myself as someone who can become as talented and passionate about art as cosmic. it’s a hell long learning process that i’ll just have to ride through

Difficult to rate since a lot of the internal dialogue is Cosmic Spectrum's personal thoughts. The art compilation is gorgeous and extremely inspiring

I'm so happy I participated in the kickstarter to get this book. It took me a while to read it because of life stuff, but it was overall a very interesting read
