Astonishing Fantasy Worlds: The Ultimate Guide to Drawing Adventure Fantasy Art (Paperback)

By Christopher Hart
$21.95
Shipped to Tattered Cover in 3 to 7 days

Description


Another sure-fire hit about one of today’s hottest genres—from best-selling author Christopher Hart!

• Drawing fantasy doesn’t have to be just a fantasy anymore

• Journey through fantasy worlds, meet strange and fascinating characters—then draw them, the Chris Hart way

• Brimming with fantastic art from top names!

Everyone loves fantasy, whether they’re young or old, male or female, geeky or chic-y. We all thrill to the bold heroes, the powerful heroines, and the evil villains. Now top-selling author and artist Christopher Hart reveals exactly how to draw every major fantasy genre: horror, Gothic, magic, medieval, primitive, undersea, and fairy. Here are wizards, beasts, soldiers and slaves, kings and queens, princes and princesses, knights, giants, nymphs and fairies, elves, griffins and unicorns, werewolves, dragons, and many more denizens of the many worlds of fantasy. And to make those fabulous creatures come to life, Hart uses his signature step-by-step style to explain exactly how to create deep shadows, high contrast, chains, spikes, sallow faces and bony fingers, cliffs, castles of light and castles of darkness, undersea cities, and other fantastic places and effects. It’s a fantasy lover’s fantasy, all between the covers of one fantastic book: Astonishing Fantasy Worlds.

About the Author


Christopher Hart is the world’s best-selling author of drawing and cartooning books. With more than 2.5 million copies in print in 18 languages, his books have set the standard for art instruction around the world. He lives in Westport, CT.
