A compelling showcase spanning seventransformative years. During an impressive period--2005through 2012--Mark Schultz turned his attention to producing a body ofpersonal works and private commissions. The results, collected in the five VariousDrawings volumes, focused on subjects about which Schultz feels mostpassionate. Among them are characters and tableaux pulled from mythology,science-fantasy and pulp adventure, featuring steely warriors and femmefatales--his popular pulpette women included. Schultz's Xenozoic world isprofusely explored through a series of dynamic compositions with hisprotagonists, Jack and Hannah, placed in a variety of impossibly dangeroussituations. In addition to his self-generated pieces, there are many examplesof Schultz's commercial works done for comics, film and books, as well asrenderings of newly discovered dinosaurs and more. Portfolio compiles thedrawings found in the original five Various Drawings volumes as well asthe cover illustrations and special bookplates. Plus, an additional 160 pagesworth of material adds dozens of works not previously collected. Foundwithin are nearly 450 fully rendered drawings executed in brush-and-ink, carbonor graphite pencil. In addition, Schultz shows his process with a wealth ofpreliminary sketches done for a range of projects, including his Storms atSea illustrated novella. Add to this rare sketchbook material andSchultz's increasing exploration of color-tinted imagery, and you have onefascinating and diverse portfolio!

With its tutorial-based approach, this is a practical guide to both hand- and computer-drawn design. Readers will learn to think three-dimensionally and build complex design ideas that are structurally sound and visually clear. The book also illustrates how these basic skills underpin the use of computer-aided design and graphic software. While these applications assist the designer in creating physical products, architectural spaces and virtual interfaces, a basic knowledge of sketching and drawing allows the designer to fully exploit the software. Foundational chapters show how these technical skills fit into a deeper and more intuitive feeling for visualisation and representation, while featured case studies of leading designers, artists and architects illustrate the full range of different drawing options available. Hundreds of hand-drawn sketches and computer models have been specially created to demonstrate critical geometry and show how to build on basic forms and exploit principles of perspective to develop sketches into finished illustrations. There's also advice on establishing context, shading and realizing more complex forms.

Offers advice on real-world practices, professional do's and don'ts, and business rules for those in the graphic arts.

The hundreds of detailed sketches and photographs capture the true nature of the species. Flat artists can use this guide as a starting point for larger compositions, while sculptors and woodcarvers can use it to define natural-looking poses for their subjects. This replaces 1565231430.
