What comes to mind when you think of graphite? Is it the stains that stay on your fingers, or the beautiful gradients that can result from simply playing with pressure? Through skilfully applied smudges and smears, the humble pencil is capable of expressing minute details and textures in myriad shades of grey, creating layered universes that draw viewers into their folds.

From the fine and crisp work produced with an H-grade to the fuzzier, ink-like impressions by the B end, Graphite collates some of the most stunning, hand-drawn contemporary pencil art across the lead spectrum, along with exclusive interviews with renowned pencil artists Amandine Urruty, Armando Veve, and Dukhoon Gim. Step into an enigmatic world of monochrome chronicling a unique perspective or story on every page, brought to life by 28 artists and illustrators from around the globe.

Dreaming and relaxing, with the stylish and powerful designs of Gustav Klimt, this beautiful new book will give you many hours of pleasure, and calm. Printed on high-quality paper, this new book features 45 powerful Klimt's artworks for you to colour, offering a suggestion of how the original looked as well as key information such as title and date. Klimt is most famous for the Kiss and his Tree of Life, but his art has many depths and varieties. This book will take you on an enjoyable journey where the satisfaction of creating stunning artworks is mixed with rediscovering the joy of colouring. You can use a wide variety of pens: from gel and pencil, to pigment and crayons, from ballpoint and rollerball to highlighters, although it’s best to avoid the heavy felt pens. Each page is perforated near the spine of the book, so you can tear out and frame, or simply place your wonderful creation on the walls of your home, perhaps even send them as a gift to your loved ones.

An ingenious take on the Rorschach Inkblot Test – a book packed full of blots that readers can transform into whatever they like

What is Hirameki?
In Japanese, it means a flash of inspiration, which is just what artists Peng & Hu had when they saw a cow with a splotch that looked just like a famous filmstar – and realized that even the splodgiest blot could be easily turned into something amazing. Since then, their passion for collecting blots and dots has taken over their lives.

• Highly creative and a little bit anarchic, this is the perfect outlet for all those who are bored by drawing inside the lines
• It's for everybody: even the most inexperienced doodlers can produce hundreds of sensational scribbles.
• Readers hone their Hirameki skills in seven sections, allowing them to progress from single drawings to complete blot-to-blot scenes.
• Artists Peng & Hu guide the reader with prompts and hints.

Hirameki is set to be the creative phenomenon of 2016!

Каждая Клякса — это вдохновение. Каждая линия свободна. Откройте свое воображение. «Хирамеки» в переводе с японского означает «своеобразный стиль», «особый отпечаток», «место, где встречаются каракули и воображение». Проще говоря, это искусство превращения случайной кляксы во что-то удивительное с помощью нескольких точек и линий. Если верить тем, кто говорит, что счастье в мелочах, то эта книга должна долго развлекать ваши глаза, руки и голову.

От авторов

В начале была клякса.

ХИРАМЕКИ заключает в себе два основных вида мыслительного процесса: поиск смысла и познание мира.

За неожиданно возникшей идеей следует ее воплощение.

В маленькой кляксе скрыта магия: ее суть становится явной, стоит лишь добавить черточки и точки так, как подсказывает фантазия.

Благодаря ХИРАМЕКИ мы можем испытать воодушевление и радость. Расслабьтесь с ХИРАМЕКИ и позвольте творить мозгу, руке и глазу.

ХИРАМЕКИ помогает находить счастье в малом.

Для кого эта книга

Для всех, кто любит рисовать и кому нравятся классные творческие блокноты.

Scott Robertson explains how the human brain interprets the visual world around us, as well as the subject of visually communicating the form of an object in easy-to-understand, step-by-step lessons through the use of drawings, photography, and even 3D digital imagery that will enlighten and empower an artist.

This book is about the fundamentals of light, shadow and reflectivity; the focus is firmly on helping to improve visual understanding of the world around and on techniques for representing that world.

Rendering is the next step after drawing to communicate ideas more clearly. Building on what Scott Robertson and Thomas Bertling wrote about in How To Draw: Drawing and Sketching Objects and Environments from Your Imagination, this book shares everything the two experts know about how to render light, shadow and reflective surfaces.

This book is divided into two major sections: the first explains the physics of light and shadow. One will learn how to construct proper shadows in perspective and how to apply the correct values to those surfaces. The second section focuses on the physics of reflectivity and how to render a wide range of materials utilizing this knowledge.

Throughout the book, two icons appear that indicate either “observation” or “action.” This means the page or section is about observing reality or taking action by applying the knowledge and following the steps in creating your own work.

Similar to our previous book, How To Draw, this book contains links to free online rendering tutorials that can be accessed via the URL list or through the H2Re app.

Over years of working as a fashion illustrator, Jane Davenport devised her own methods for deciphering in-proportion figures. She shares them in I [Heart] Drawing: Fabulous Figures, the first in an exciting new series. The core technique involves using equal-size hearts to build the structure of the figure. It's an easy-to- remember, highly customizable approach. The concept started life as an online workshop, and the results students have achieved have been astounding. Jane has seen students go from "I can't draw a stick figure" to being able to create gorgeous, well-proportioned illustrations. After laying out the basics of drawing the figure, I [Heart] Drawing: Fabulous Figures walks readers through drawing and painting with different mediums; drawing the head and face, clothing, hair, and other features; and creating figures inspired by fashion illustration, fantasy, life drawing, and more.

From the co-creator of the bestselling Hirameki: Draw What You See comes a stylish yet playful approach to drawing cartoons, designed to excite even the most tentative artists. Over several decades teaching in schools and art colleges, Austrian cartoonist Peng has developed expert knowledge of the building blocks of drawing and sketching.

Peng is an Austrian cartoonist and illustrator who, with the artist Hu, co-authored the Hirameki: Draw What You See series, published by Thames & Hudson. He has taught art in schools and at the Art University in Linz, Austria, and in 2003 was the winner of the ‘Deutscher Karikaturenpreis’ – the most important illustration award in the German-speaking area.

The first volume in this two-part series - Jewellery Illustration and Design - provides a step-by-step guide to the fundamental aspects of the graphic representation of a wide range of jewellery pieces, from the simplest to the most complex forms. Different volumens, spaces, surfaces and finishes are explained in details, as are methods for depicting different materials, from timeless metals and precious stones to substances such as celluloid and bakalite. The objective of this book is not to showcase completed jewellery pieces. Instead, it aims to provide readers with the tools needed to be able to accurately convey their ideas and master use of colour, as well as to draw different facets and effects such as brilliance, transparencey and opacity. It does so by explaining a variety of illustration techniques involving pencils, markers, pastels, tempera and computer rendering.

This book analyzes the fundamental aspects of graphically depicting a wide variety of jewelry. The relationships of volume, balance between full and empty, treatment of metal surfaces, warm and cool materials and the relationship between the support and the stone are explained in depth along with ways to illuminate jewelry, treatment of light and chiaroscuro play to add depth. The book begins with simple geometric structures and moves on to explore more complex forms through a range of distortions and multiplications. The goal is not to show finished pieces of jewelry but to provide the tools that will enable readers to acquire a work method that allows them to represent their ideas effectively. From orthogonal and axonometric projections to techniques (watercolor, tempera, ink, mixed technique) and different possible supports, readers will find a source of inspiration for developing their own designs. Rings, tiaras, precious stones, bracelets and chains) are graphically represented in this book as if they were real, along with effects such as depth, gloss and transparency.

About the Authors:

Manuela Brambatti began her career in the fashion world in the late seventies working for Style and other fashion magazines. She has collaborated with Giorgio Correggiari, Krizia and Gian Marco Venturi, but her most important and far-reaching experience is her work with Gianni Versace, where she played a crucial role in setting standards with regard to the presentation and illustration of the house s fashion and home collections. She is the author of the best-selling title Fashion Illustration and Design by Promopress.

Cosimo Vinci studied jewellery design in Florence and Vicenza. His clients are international companies from small to large businesses, from high end jewellery to bijoux. He has designed jewellery for famous fashion brands such as Versace, Versus, Balmain, Montana, Laura Biagiotti, Valentino, Etro. Since 1998 he has been teaching at The Art and Craft School in Vicenza and conducting seminars in many parts of the world on this subject.

Leonardo da Vinci and Anatomy: all the power and relevance of this great Renaissance mind.

This exhibition catalogue on Leonardo da Vinci the anatomist highlights the mystery of a thought that was both anchored in its time and, combined with a totally new practice (dissection), leading to a new understanding of the nature of life. Da Vinci was not content with a passive description of the human body; he sought to penetrate the secrets of its functioning by first studying the mechanics of humans (bones, muscles, tendons), then the logic of the senses, and finally all the bodily functions (digestion, respiration, blood circulation, reproduction), which made him to use qualitative reasoning.

Contrary to popular belief, Leonardo did not carry out his dissections in secret, but in complete agreement with the political and religious authorities, until his materialistic ideas came into conflict with the pontifical authorities, particularly with regard to embryology.

The originality of the book is to show how Leonardo’s work as an anatomist and his work as a painter are inseparable. The book thus links a work such as the Last Supper in Milan with the knowledge gathered in the medical field.

The book brings together originals or copies of Leonardo’s sheets with objects (anatomical waxes, facsimiles of dissecting instruments), books studied by the artist, interviews with specialists and animated 3D reconstructions.
