Review
Nov 09 Gothic has never been more fashionable, with paranormal romances proliferating on the bookshelves and on our screens. If you are a fan of this type of thing and enjoy art you are going to like this a lot more than all those books on landscapes and flowers... This book gets you into the mood for drawing gothic as well as giving you plenty of tips on how and what; a touch I liked. Working with black - both with your chosen way of making a mark and what you are putting it on - is practically the first topic, and comes with a reminder of why black is the color for this type of thing. Also touched on are the usual themes of perspective, shading, what you need to buy etc and all these are of course slanted towards making everything look as gothic as possible. Getting the look right with eye makeup, symbols, facial expressions, poses and of course drawing bones are some of the topics and there are some staged projects to work through. These are not in as many stages as many other Search Press books but I don't see this as being a book for the total beginner, and nowhere does this word appear. I particularly liked the sections on using photographs and grids, showing that there is more to art these days than putting pen or brush to paper. Also available and companion to this title is Draw Sci Fi. Put them together and you have everything you need to depict steampunk! * Myshelf.com *

Trade Paperback. Condition: New. Providing unique insight into the Goth genre, this imaginative and inspirational resource is packed full of information, expert tips, and step-by-step projects. Teaching aspiring illustrators how to draw powerful Gothic images inspired by the poetry, art, and fantasies associated with the Goth scene, this collection begins with a comprehensive guide to materials--such as how to invest wisely in quality pencils, the ins and outs of using colored pencils, and selecting the right color and texture of a drawing surface--and basic techniques such as shading, creating texture, working with light, and determining perspective. A special section focuses on working exclusively with black. Early chapters focus on universal figure drawing and portraiture techniques, while later chapters examine drawing Goth-specific fonts and symbols, designing Gothic jewelry, costume design, and landscapes.
