The Art Of Kelogsloops: From Sketch To Finish h/c back

Swoooooooon!

I need this boy so badly...

This is an odd one because Page 45 doesn't really do art books, and I don't do blondes. Still, equal opportunities, and all that.

Plus all that negative space is to die for. Pages and pages of detailed process and OMG stop reading and swipe through these photos again.

I'm going to have a long lie down.


The publisher (more helpfully) writes:

"Kelogloops: The Art of Hieu Nguyen is the debut art book from the popular mixed-media artist. Though Hieu is based in Melbourne, Australia, his incredible artwork has been showcased in exhibitions around the world, including Los Angeles, Berlin, San Francisco, and Sydney. Known for both digital and watercolour paintings, Hieu masterfully blends his love of surreal-art styles and Japanese anime. In this stunning art book, Hieu takes readers through his journey as an artist, from being taught a simple way to draw manga art by his older sister aged five, to reaching over a million followers on Instagram as 'Kelogsloops' and achieveing commercial success. Primarily a watercolour artist, Hieu creates delicate yet vibrant paintings that create an emotional connection with the viewer.

His work is driven by the everyday feelings that come with being human, such as love, grief, and nostalgia - those things that can often onlly be communicated through art. Readers will find joy in discovering how Hieu is inspired to create his work, and the process behind each piece. This is a must-have book for any fan of Kelogsloops, or any art fan in general.

The production value is incredibly high, making this a book to keep on your coffee table or bookshelf for years to come."
