It further enhances the reader’s understanding by elaborate case studies and abundant product designs which come with useful ergonomic diagrams.

Everyday Scenes from a Parallel World is a celebration of the beauty of the scenes and backgrounds in anime and manga. 

This unusual book turns the spotlight exclusively on the scenes and background illustrations. With only a few ordinary characters in these scenes, attention here is focused on the beauty of the illustrated backgrounds.

These background artworks feature familiar scenes from daily life: nostalgic townscapes, detailed cityscapes, intricate architecture, rooms that look like doll houses, etc. They are extremely realistic and detailed -- almost like photographs -- but at the same time give readers the sense that we are looking at images of a parallel world.

The works featured are by 39 well-known, mostly Japanese creators, illustrators, and animators. Some creators featured have made their entire careers specializing in drawing backgrounds. Frequently overlooked, this book finally gives them the recognition they deserve. Additionally, a section that explains drawing techniques and materials is included. The profiles of creators with messages from each, descriptions of each creator's techniques and preferred materials are written in both Japanese and English text.

This stunning collection will appeal to all art lovers and is sure to bring creators massive inspiration, too.

An exhibition is an organized presentation and display of a selection of items that usually takes place in a museum, gallery or exhibition hall.

Exhibitions may range from an extraordinarily large event such as a world’s fair to small one-artist solo shows. Architects, exhibition designers, graphic designers and other designers are usually needed to shape the exhibition space and give form to the editorial content.

Exhibition Art: Graphics and Space Design collects almost one hundred of the most creative exhibition designs, including fascinating space designs and sophisticated graphic designs. It will surely serve as a significant guide for exhibition designers, graphic designers, curators and event organizers.

This original work introduces readers to the drawing and painting techniques of the hyperrealist movement, a style applied to painting whose techniques aspire to photographic exactitude in drawing.

From the first action before viewing the piece – the search for information and reference images – to different drawing and sculpture techniques, the book offers a step-by-step explanation of the creative process and shows readers how to illustrate in black and white and with colored pencils, how to work with watercolors and oil, how to create a trompe l’oeil and how to create a realistic-looking 3D model. Readers will find all the techniques and suggestions they need to make their own hyperrealist creations, all explained in a pleasant and fun way.

It is an original and creative way to introduce different drawing techniques that will awaken the artist inside of us all and whose results will strike most readers as surprising given the degree of realism achieved, as if they were photographs. The book includes references to contemporary artists who have used each of the techniques described, curiosities in the world of art and other tricks of the trade.
