Journal Entry: Sun Jan 11, 2009, 3:44 AM
I should've posted this awhile back, sorry, brain farted there ;)

I get this question a lot about the books I had mentioned in the tutorial vids I did. My top recommendations these awesome artists:

George B. Bridgman
Any Of His books!

Burne Hogarth
Anything Of His!

Mitch Byrd - Notes To Draw From (Series)
Notes To Draw From

There ya have it! If anyone one else has artbook recommendations, please feel free to share yours. These are the guys I enjoy most reading and hope they'll be some of yours as well. Worth it!

And while I'm here I'll post up two of my FAV Animation Info books! I also animate and enjoy it very much so.

Timing For Animation

Hope these gets a lot of you going and inspired to do more for the Arts!

Keep Sketching!!! ;)

Yeah, Hogarth's books are all really awesome! One of my favorites that they had at my old school was his book on clothing and how it drapes upon a body... That was one sick book... Wish I had it now, or at least could afford to get a copy of it(Curse you rent and bills!!!)

Happy Penut song,
over chocolate covered mountaintops,
And waterfalls of caramel,
dancing nugaut in the medow,
sings a song of satisfaction to the world...

It's a photo book, I recommend "1000 on 42nd."

It's pictures of 1000 people that was walking through time square in New York. All it is is face shot, it makes you aware of how many different faces there are in the world, something every artist should work on.

Here's a list I've been able to make from San and some other artists I've seen recommendations from.

Some books are in there multiple times because they have more than one ISBN number associated with them to help in your search.
