A lot of the books I write about are written for mixed-media artists and the like, but in addition to those yummy books I savor graphic design books too. This quote by George Kneller featured in the book Complete Digital Illustration: A Master Class in Image-Making is just so good I had to share it with you today:
"Creativity, it has been said,
consists largely of rearranging what we know
in order to find out what
we do not know."
If you like digital illustration and want a behind-the-scenes peek into the designers that create it, then I bet you will love this Rotovision book:

The work featured in the book reflects the wide and exciting range of image-making practice that thrives today, from music and fashion to character and toy design.
