New Todd Oldham book about Alexander Girard

2011-12-14T01:50:00.000-08:00

In the Stephen Silver course I learned to see not only look at shapes, variantion and contrast on others designs. I didn't understand artists such as Alexander Girard, Charley Harper or Lou Romano before. Now I like their works because I understand the importance of shapes variation and contrast in their designs. Maybe it's not my favorite style of work but Alexander Girard has a lot of other interesting elements in his characters to discover.
