Illustrator Richard Yot, known for his work in film as a lighting artist and stylised 3D illustrations, takes you through the fundamental properties of natural and artificial light, shadows, the interaction of light on different types of surfaces, reflections, as well as transparency, translucency and the effects of light on colour. Light for Visual Artists is the first and only book that explores the way light can be used to create realistic and fantastical effects in a wide range of media. Whether you’re an animator, painter, photographer or illustrator, you need to know how to harness light in your work to create the right effect.

Light is as important as colour in creating the right effect, whether on a palette or on a computer. Download Light for Visual Artists Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
