Digital Art Revolution

Starred review from July 1, 2010
Award-winning digital artist and arts educator Ligon makes a convincing argument that digital technology has forever changed how art is made. He begins with the basics of the Photoshop environment and adds increasingly complex digital techniques, illustrated by 40 noted digital artists. Many professional designers, especially graphic designers and architects, work now exclusively in digital formats, and fine artists are rapidly discovering the possibilities. Ligon's book is among the best for beginning and intermediate artists. Those already well versed in Photoshop should see Steve Caplin's "100% Photoshop: Create Stunning Artwork Without Using Any Photographs"
