(If you like caricatures you may want to check out Kruger Faces, also on our shelves here at Pulp's Art. Kruger is held in enormous respect by his peers and is arguably the best living exponent in this specialized field of illustration, blurring the line between caricature and fine art.)

We have all the Comix Buro sketchbooks in print available at Pulp's Art, if you aren't yet familiar with this excellent series - inspired by the self published books US artists sell at conventions - then do call in and get to know them, each contains a good mix of sketches and finished art by great artists in the field of animation and BD.


ART OF DOUG SNEYD

Dark Horse
Playboy magazine always had great cartoonist providing cheeky gags for its swinging readers, Dean Yeagle is one of the hot talents Hef currently has on the case but one of the most fondly remembered is Doug Sneyd, a regular contributor since 1964.
This lavish book includes 300 published pieces as well as sketches and essays about Doug and the distinctive, shapely "Sneyd" girl.

Pulp's Art isn't the kind of shop to have a section behind a beaded curtain but we do have a glamour, pin-up, cheese cake section for Gentlemen to relish!


ALEX PARDEE AWFUL RESILIANT
HC 172pp Color Balck + White
Gingko Press
Wow, it's as if someone took all of the the anger on the streets of Athens and  Damascus and threw it onto a canvas and they then picked that up and hurled that into a book, this book in fact!
Yes more angry edgy art from Alex Pardee with a tip of the hat to the obvious influence of British illustrator Gerald Scarfe.
