The Education of an Illustrator

Edited by Steven Heller and Marshall Arisman

This volume's cutting-edge essays, interviews, and course syllabi provide the first-ever blue print for teaching and practicing the dynamic art and craft of illustration.

This revolutionary book fills a practical and an intellectual void for educators, students, and professionals in the field of illustration. Based on interviews with top illustrators and teachers, the book discusses how professionals acquired their illustration know-how and went on to apply it in their careers.

Also explored are model illustration education curricula�for both undergraduate and graduate levels�created by leading illustration educators and practitioners. Offering a diverse range of attitudes, philosophies, and visions, this book is the first to address pressing issues confronting education in the illustration arts.

Reviews

"If you have ever thought that the profession of illustration is in crisis and even feared of its possible obsolescence; if you have ever tried to imagine what effects computers, the Internet, stock houses, and the changing needs of art directors have on the illustration industry as a whole; if you have ever thought about restructuring the courses you teach to better suit the next generation of illustrators and designers, then this book is a valuable resource." �The Guild News
