New purchases for "inspiration"

Recently, I was in Madison for the MS walk, it was also Free Comic Book Day, so we went to Westfield Comics and scored some free comics. I also found this book:
I love the artwork in it, I never owned or read a graphic novel so it should be interesting.

I also bought two drawing books on drapery and a book on facial expressions. I am having a hard time putting clothes on any of my figure drawings so I figured I should get something.



When Dustin and I were looking around at The Source Comics in St Paul, I found a new artist that I was interested in name Yasushi Susuki. I really liked his style and watercolors so I also bought one of his books too called "Goth's Cage".


I love amazon.com, its nice finally having money to purchase more books!

    HEY AMBER!
    I'm so excited about this blog! As you know I love graphic novels and I am fascinated by illustration. David Mack's "Kabuki" is my favorite! Check his work out. It not only has brilliant traditional and computer illustrations,it has in depth writing as well. In the "Kabuki" series I like "Metamorphosis" the best.

    Thanks for the suggestion Sam! I checked out the link, the illustrations are amazing! I want to get back into watercolor and I think that these would be great to look into!
