ART/BOOK – Sell Your Soul: How to Build Your Creative Career Book Review

It’s one thing to know that you can make a living as an artist.  It’s another to actually try to do it, by getting a job in some company.

On top of that, it’s another problem if you want to make a living as an independent artist.  This later problem is what the book I’m reviewing in this video is all about.

If you don’t want to work in a company and want to go completely independent, then watch this video.  The book I’m going to review is full of practical tips on how to go do it.

ART/BOOKS – Books on Creating Environments Part 2 Framed Ink by Marcos Mateu Mestre

Continuing my recommendation for books on creating environments, I talk about Framed Ink, by Marcos Mateu Mestre. Mestre has worked for Dreamworks and Sony animation, among other things.

This book is far more than a book about environments, however everything he says can be applied to drawing and designing them.  Like other books in this series, composition is a big part of the info that makes drawing environments essential.

Watch the video to see what I why the book is worth reading and owning.

ART/BOOKS – The Back of the Napkin Book Review

Besides drawing for as a hobby to relax. Or drawing as a job, as an artist, what other practical application could there possibly be to drawing in everyday life.

For example in a regular business setting.  Is there any good reason at all to be able to draw?  Is there any use for the skill?

That’s exactly what this book I talk about in this video answers.  Turns out selling ideas, better communication and innovation can come into an everyday business by using drawing effectively.

Watch my review as I explain what’s in this book and why it’s worth picking up:

ART/BOOKS – Drawn To Life By Walt Stanchfield

Disney animation drawing secrets, pretty much sums up the book I’m talking about in this video.

However, there’s more to it than that.  I also talk about the reason learning to draw cartoons and learning these animation drawing principles will make you a better artist.

Even if your intention is to draw more realistic.
