“Pays tribute to the ubiquitous, universal, and highly user-friendly Sharpie marker . . . The heart of the guide is the many short creativity exercises.” —Library Journal Bold and sharp, brilliant and vivid, Sharpie markers can be found in art, office, and stationery supply stores, drugstores, mass-market and crafts chains—almost anywhere writing utensils are sold. Sharpies can be used on virtually any surface, from the traditional (paper and canvas) to the unexpected (fabric, plastic, ceramics, glass, wood, stone, metal). In addition to the original fine point version, Sharpies are produced in five tip widths, several formulations, and in more than thirty colors, plus silver metallic. Their familiarity, accessibility, and clean, bold, dense line—especially the graphic impact that can be achieved with classic black—have made Sharpie markers the go-to medium for creatives of all stripes. In Sharpie Art Workshop, designer, artist, and art director Timothy Goodman explores Sharpie writing products, the materials and supplies that can be used to enhance or modify them, and the range of creative techniques and effects that can be achieved. Through a series of examples and exercises, Goodman demonstrates how to make different kinds of marks, patterns, and images on a variety of surfaces. Inspiring works by noted artists from all over the world who use Sharpie in interesting and innovative ways are also included. Sharpie Art Workshop offers ideas and inspiration to anyone who’s looking to explore the creative potential of this exciting medium. So when you make your mark, what will you create? “Slim and unique, this ‘catalog of inspiration’ enthusiastically celebrates the mighty marker.” —Publishers Weekly

Markers are incredibly versatile tools for expressing design ideas in the early stages of design and illustration. They’re especially valuable in architectural design, where subtle effects often have to be visually expressed. All the techniques you need to exploit this medium in architectural design applications are clearly explained and visually demonstrated in this workshop-style guide. Emphasis throughout is on the relationship between the architect’s thinking, sketching, and seeing, as well as on how to achieve effective results using just a few simple strokes with markers. Taking you from start to finish, Architectural Sketching in Markers covers how to: Analyze a space Establish an effective visual viewpoint Define a visual concept "Tune in" the color Achieve effective results with quick and refined sketching Series of progressive marker sketches with sketching tips make it easy to render different environments and effects of color, light, form, and space. You’re shown how to establish the appropriate form and space when sketching exteriors, interiors, cityscapes, and more. More than 160 color and 50 black-and-white illustrations vividly display the effects you can achieve, and help you master architectural details and marker variations. In addition, a portfolio of work done by eight accomplished, contemporary illustrators demonstrates a wide range of exciting possibilities. Included with these samples are commentaries by the artists, providing insights into the sketching techniques they used and their basic artistic approaches. You’ll gain valuable insights into sketching ideas for buildings, cars, furniture, and elements of the landscape such as trees. Guidelines on travel sketching are also provided. With markers enabling you to capture an immediate response to form, space, and different levels of illumination — with an economy of strokes — this collection of techniques and visual results can greatly expand your ability to express design ideas. Architectural Sketching in Markers is a valuable resource for all architects, graphic designers, interior designers, industrial designers, renderers, and artists.

For all first perspective drawing courses at the Freshman/Sophomore level for majors including Interior Design, Graphic Design, Game Art, Animation, and Industrial Design; and for all courses in Interior Design Perspective, Sketch, and/or Presentation. This book will also be useful in high school courses for students pursuing careers in the Applied Arts. This book helps students learn how to draw quickly and believably by mastering practical techniques for perspective drawing and estimating scale and proportion. Drawing on extensive experience teaching beginners, the authors overcome many limitations of previous books. Rather than featuring professional work that beginners can't possibly duplicate, they show examples of student drawings, helping students gain confidence and gauge their progress. Avoiding unnecessary theory, math, and jargon, they help students develop an intuitive sense of scale and proportion for creating believable perspectives, and offer valuable tricks and shortcuts throughout. In place of lengthy narratives, they support each lesson with supporting video walking through key techniques. The authors also devote lessons to SketchUp (for blocking out perspectives) and Photoshop (for enhancing sketches). This is the Stand Alone text. The text is available for purchase with MyInteriorDesignKit! MyInteriorDesignKit is an online supplement that offers book specific resources including flashcards, study aids, images, projects and additional material not found in the book.

Expanding on the philosophy and methods of The Laws Guide to Nature Drawing and Journaling, John Muir Laws and Emilie Lygren have developed the first-ever comprehensive book devoted to helping educators use nature journaling as an inspiring teaching tool to engage young people with wild places. In their workshops Laws and Lygren are often asked the how-tos of teaching nature journaling: how to manage student groups in the outdoors, teach drawing skills (especially from those who profess to have none), connect journaling to educational standards, and incorporate journaling into longer lessons. This book puts together curriculum plans, advice, and in-the-field experience so that educators of all stripes can leap into journaling with their students. The approaches are designed to work in a range of ecosystems and settings, and are suitable for classroom teachers, outdoor educators, camp counselors, and homeschooling parents. Full-color illustrations and sample journal pages from notable naturalists show how to put each lesson into practice. Field-tested by over a hundred educators, this book includes dozens of activities that easily support the Common Core and the Next Generation Science Standards--and, just as important, it will show kids and mentors alike how to recognize the wonder and intrigue in their midst.
