Welcome to SKETCHBOOKS ‘The sketching stage is integral to any piece of art it forms the foundations that everything else balances on. Sketches can often provide interesting insights into the processes and thinking behind the finished piece as well as showing off technique and skill, An artist's sketchbook is sacred and personal - often thought of like a diary - filled with uncensored thoughts, emotions and unique flourishes that are special to them. The freewheeling excitement in sketches - where artists don't hold back, don't overthink, don't censor ~ is hard to beat. Ahmed Aldoori’s hands, for example, that can be seen in full on page 14 and as a background to this page, show what can be achieved when you set yourself challenges, By drawing 500 hands, Ahmed was, able to explore subileties that are often overlooked, This book is about such captured moments bursting with creativity, straight from the minds of the finest illustrators around the world. Whether made by pencil or stylus, sketches may be loose and generous or precise and economic, but all reveal something about the pure fun of creation. j My SKETCHBOOKS In LFOR DIGITAL ine EX SKETCHBOOKS SDN Ta JL QTD Qu NO] Contents Dive into the minds - and the sketchbooks - of some of the world’s best fantasy and concept artists and illustrators sy Te ae: VA eis ) ae SS) OE Contents Benjamin Leen iter, — re ' MED Ahmed Aldoori AHMED ALDOORI Grungy cyberpunk imagery rubs shoulders with fantastical figures on the pages of this concept artist’s sketchbook Ahmed Aldoori © I sketched an idea of boat merchants, with an Arabian Nights theme %° secs mg GRE Ahmed Aldoori A ME ceo Ahmed Aldoori with proportions and shapes... © Ahmed Aldoori Ahmed Aldoori © Itcan be useful to start your character sketches on a 3/4 perspective plane 9 Mia Araujo MIA ARAUJO Striking character artwork fills the pages of the US illustrator’s sketchbook, including a reimagining of Alice in Wonderland oe Mia Araujo [Mites koe Hearts’ courtiers have kept their hea: Mia Araujo YiYy Wb / © Setting it in West Africa was a way \ to play tribute to beautiful people who don't receive enough representation... \, oe 6 It was tough to convey a mermaid with just a portrait (no tail!) 9 oe Mia Araujo Ashline ASHLINE Nature and emotions serve as inspiration - and an aide-mémoire - for this self-taught French illustrator and concept artist EXPRESSION: CN | NJ 5 0 5 © Usually, I have no idea what I'm going to draw.
