D'Artiste Matt Painting 2, Exotique 4 and Art of Bolt


In Stock now! Just arrived today - 3 more great reasons to stop by!

Matt Painting 2 and Exotique 4 feature some of the best digital art in the world. Whether you work in the field, or aspire to, these are great books to both inspire and educate. Previous volumes also in stock.



The Art of Bolt is a book you may be asking yourself about - is it worth it? the short answer is yes.

It's no kung fu panda, but it's really jam packed with great production art including some terrific character designs that seem to channel the design sense of Chuck Jones. The obvious omition of Chris Sander's work is possibly the only dissapointment. I realize, the movie was changed -but it would be nice if the art of book, could show the early path the movie was on as part of its development process. The movie is out this Friday - see it in 3D if you get the chance.



Below is the trailer to Bolt, for anyone who hasn't yet seen it. The Gerbil or woodchuck, or whatever it is -is completely awesome.
