Sketchbooks Vol. 3
To where things stay interesting
Sketches are my favourite part of the art
process. Don’t get me wrong, I love a finished
piece that exudes a confident vision which only
comes from hours of getting every stroke or
pixel just so. But the freewheeling excitement in
sketches – where artists don’t hold back, don’t
over-think, don’t censor – is hard to beat.
Case in point: Wes Burt’s faces. It’s used on
this page as a background, and when you see
it in full on page 39, its explosion of distinct features, expressions,
angles and lines all merge together to create a beautiful chaos. There’d
be no earthly reason to take such a familiar head sketch exercise to a
finished stage; it remains a compelling piece of art in itself.
This book is about such captured moments bursting with creativity,
straight from the minds of the finest illustrators around the world.
Whether made by pencil or stylus, sketches may be loose and
generous or precise and economic, but all reveal something about the
pure fun of creation.
Of course, you can never have too much of a good thing. If you
haven’t seen the previous two volumes of this sketchbook series,
head over to page 174 to get hold of them. And if you don’t know of
ImagineFX
magazine, which has put these collections together, see
what it’s all about on page 176. There are sketches, full workshops,
interviews, features, and much more besides, in every issue...
For now, I really hope you enjoy this collection, and get as much
inspiration from it as you can. The magic is right there on the page, so
what are you waiting for? Enjoy!
