Media Reviews
This little book with its spiral bound pages ( I love those in art books - so useful not to have pages spring shut when you're working) from the how to draw series contains a huge wealth of information on how to create supernatural creatures. Andy gives some useful information on what tools to use and then its on to the creatures. Even though we are creating fantasy creatures Andy says to study nature and people from life to have a range of interesting references to work from. He then shows us how to transform this into supernatural style beings. He covers how to create mood and atmosphere in our paintings, and such basics essentials as composition and perspectives as well as the basic creatures so they become one with the surrounding fantasy worlds. The actual creatures he usefully divides into subtypes from goblins and demons along to vampires and shape-shifters and mythical creatures such as unicorns and kelpies. As well as using paints Andy shows us ways to use computer programmes to create creatures using Photoshop ( clearly he too finds MS Paint useless!!) which is great for those with better PC skills than with brush and paints - adapting his instructions from paints to PC is easy for those with the technical knowledge ( not me !) and may encourage those who fear paper and paint to have a go at art. For anyone interested in Supernatural drawing and painting this book is a great find with so much to learn from, and for any younger people you would like to encourage to take an interest in art this would make a terrific present, it'll show them how fun art can be. The pc orientated instruction may encourage those who feel they can't draw or paint to get creative so if you know someone with pc skills but not drawing ones this book would make a great gift.-JeannieZelos.com
