About this product

Product Information

Everyone knows that a picture tells a thousand words. But what about the elements that make up a picture? Using the tale of Little Red Riding Hood as an example, Molly Bang uses boldly graphic artwork to explain how images--and their individual components--work to tell a story that engages the emotions: Why are diagonals dramatic? Why are curves calming? Why does red feel hot and blue feel cold? First published in 1991, Picture This fans will welcome the new edition's striking redesign and introduce its insights to many other artists and art appreciators alike.

  • A simple guide to creating illustrations with impact!!

    This book was created to make the life of an illustrator easier. The author has put down into plain English which aspects of a picture will create which mood you are trying to convey through your art. Example: Smooth, flat, horizontal shapes give us a sense of stability and calm. Acquiring these skills will give your illustrations more impact and the right message to coincide with the words of a story.

  • "Picture This"-Illuminates the core values of the visual designer

    This book is a novel and simple way to illustrate the design concepts that enable artists to communicate emotions in narratives. It presents the core values of abstraction: color, shape, size, balance, movement, dynamics, etc.
