World Art - by Craig Hill



Rough Work by Frank Frazetta

Frank Frazetta Rough Work
Mark Frauenfelder on Boingboing points out something that I immediately agreed with - he likes to buy releases of sketchbooks by popular artists, as the sketches often have more 'vitality' to them.

I totally agree - I recently bought Frank Cho's Women, and the sketches contain softness and movement, things that can be eliminated or reduced when the ink takes over.

Frauenfelder has Frank Frazetta's "Rough Work" - Frazetta is one of the most popular illustrators for fantasy and science-fiction work, most likely to his incredibly attention to body structure, and his ability to capture movement.

Here's a scan that Frauenfelder put up on the site:

Incredible! I love the exaggerated proportions, the faded lines, and the simple colours. Ok, Mark, you've convinced me - I'm putting this on my Amazon wishlist!

A wonderful selection of Frazetta's work, from early comic books, to movie posters!

I found this Clint Eastwood poster there!
