I recently bought this little present for myself and I love it! First of all the cover is awesome...and as I think I have mentioned before, I'm a sucker for a good cover. Inside is the work of a huge number of illustrators using a range of different techniques and materials...you can see lots of sewing, embroidery and mixed media. The focus is on looking on techniques outside digital illustration.
Lately I have been wanting to expand on the type of work I have been doing and this is full of ideas...very inspiring! I particularly liked the work of Catalina Estrada, an artist born and raised in Columbia, but living in Barcelona for the last ten years or so. You can check out her portfolio and shop
here. It's amazing!
There is also an interesting interview with her
here.
The book is published by Victionary -their site is
here and it looks like they have a really interesting group of design and illustration books. I'm guessing you can buy it at your local indie bookstore (?) but if not, I bought my copy through Amazon - you can find it
here
