A little while ago I got my copy of this in the mail. It been out for some time but I wasn't that pressed to buy it. Although I love Danny Gregory and have his other books and I knew it would be wonderful I resisted.
I was thinking oh its like 1000 Artist Journal Pages so I don't need another book like that. I mean I love that book but I don't need two of them. Well I discovered how wrong I was, the book is wonderful and so different from the journal pages book. I think one review said its like looking into the mind of an artist and that is what its like. You get to spend several pages with each artist, look into their sketchbooks and see their processes. I have barely delved into all the varied artists in the book and I am loving it. I highly recommend the book for all of you or any artist on your gift list.
These books do both look like a lot of fun! I know everyone is extra busy right now so blogland is slow...but good to see you when you come up for air!
ReplyDeleteThank you for posting about Danny's book, I have often been tempted to order it but I hesitated--now you've inspired me and I think I'll stop hesitating. Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteI bought An Illustrated Life earlier this year and LOVE it! I too love to read about the process of other artists and I'm a sketchbook addict!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend, Kate.
