The Encyclopedia of Fantasy and Science Fiction Art Techniques

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Encyclopedia of Fantasy and Science Fiction Art Techniques is a book focused on developing artistic concepts and techniques in the fantasy genre.[1] It was authored by John Grant and Ron Tiner, [2] and published by Titan Books in 1996.

David Atkinson reviewed the work for Arcane magazine, rating it an 8 out of 10 overall.[1] Atkinson comments that "This book is a place to start and develop, but it is worth remembering that all artists have to be born with talent. Even a good book can't give it."[1] Other reviews were by Carolyn Cushman (1996) in Locus[3] and by Steve Jeffery (1998) in Vector.[4]
