Item Details
Description
"Creative Illustration" by Andrew Loomis, published by Bonanza, a Division of Crown, New York, 1947. First Printing of this edition with "a" present in the letter line on the copyright page.
Hard boards, original orange cloth spine, black lettering on spine, [a little soiling]; large: 9" x 12.1/4"; color frontispiece, 300 pages, fully illustrated, a little soiling, very good condition.
"Creative Illustration is a 300 page tome bursting at the seams with essentials of image creation and Andrew Loomis’ beautiful work, sage advice and straightforward instruction." [Lines and Colors]
"This book has a ton of information. Highly recommend for those wanting to learn more about color, light and storytelling. Definitely worth a read if you are just starting your artistic journey."
"It's almost 60 years since the author has passed away, but he was one of the best teachers in the Craft, and he is until today teaching us in his legacy of books. In his books, he gives detailed information about how to draw perspective, heads, hands, body, and a load of useful instructions that will make you a professional artist. I have been drawing since my early childhood and has never found a book like the Andrew Loomis'. But not only his teaching, he himself was an expert in drawing. He gained a living with his profession because he was an outstanding artist, apart from being a powerful teacher. I have sold and given most of my other art instruction books, because I can tell everybody that I found the best instructor, period. Do you also want to be a good artist? Purchase any other book of Loomis. Study it carefully, and you will not regret it. You'll learn from a professional. Words are not enough in describing how good was "the Master". His books are plenty with serious teachings that you will conserve during your lifetime." [a private review by an artist]
