Markers Wet & Wild/Tricks and Techniques for Achieving Speed, Splash, and Painterly Effects
Used Book in Good Condition
This book presents the art of marker techniques from the point of view of the working illustrator who specialises in comps for the advertising industry. The work reflects a truly contemporary style that shows off the painterly qualities of markers, that exploits their bold, broad, and direct style. Hayden especially emphasises the wet look of markers and discourages the over-rendered look of the dry marker so often seen in marker manuals. He demonstrates how to take a wet marker - one that is fully loaded and juicy - and produce an exciting look that is characterised by total coverage, rich colour, soft edges and blended tones. The first half of the book covers the technical side of markers: the wet vs dry look, combined techniques, flat and graded washes, blending, glazing, hard and soft edges, straight edges, and freehand techniques. The second half covers the most commonly encountered subject areas for marker artists: people, landscapes, cityscapes, animals, and product illustration.
