Debra Gilbert: Love all Andrew Loomis books

United States on Oct 24, 2023

A: This is good for brushing up on concepts you’ve already learned and forgotten, or for self taught artists looking for a textbook on basic illustration. I can definitely see how this was considered the Bible for illustrators back when it was written. However, it’s painfully limited to midcentury American advertisements and figurative paintings of nude women. If your illustrative goals lie outside the author’s interests, you might be disappointed. I’ve had this book for 10 years and only open it when I’m feeling stumped about compositions. There are much better resources available now.

Annie: El mejor libro de ilustración que he tenido. Explica muy bien. Las gráficas son excelentes. Habla de la línea, el sombreado, la proporción, el armado de la composición y más. Lo que más me gustó son los tips que dá para hacer más interesantes tus ilustraciones.
Como alguien que practica ilustración por auto estudio, este libro ha sido la maravilla.
A MUST HAVE.
También es un excelente regalo para cualquier amante de los 1940's.

Dio Brando: I wouldn't be surprised if many of those great illustrators and character artists learned about 60% of their toolkit from this book and maybe James Gurney color and light.
I give it a thumbs up.

Davor Aslanovski: The value of this book can only be expressed through its own words.
Let one example stand for many:

'Light changes when we are sketching. During one sitting we may have many varying effects. How often the sun starts out bright and the sketch is under way. We try to state the effect. Then the sun goes under and stays under. The only thing to do is to set the sketch aside, for if we continue it will not have the same aspect, nor will it be true to the fundamental approach to values. Start a new one, smaller if the time is short, and wait for another sunny day for the other.'

As you can see, within the space of only six sentences this author manages to summarise the whole gamut of our fallen human condition. Moving, at once sagaciously and gracefully, from the daunting curtain-raiser that could come right out of Ecclesiastes ('Light changes fast when we are sketching' - indeed, a crisper account of all life's transience and all the actions of man being inherently 'hevel' has not been offered in all the twenty-two centuries that have whizzed by since the time of that spiritual father of all modern men), through examinations of uncertainty and contingency of all our...
