Hi Gang,
I'm sure some of you already know James Gurney's blog, but I just saw the newest post and wanted to tell you about it.
The Gurney Journey blog has passed 2'000 posts and to commemorate the occasion James has put together a list with links to his post popular posts.
These posts are covering anything from color wheel to composition and from paint texture to studio lighting.
James is the creator of the dinotopia books and also covers lots of aspects from an illustrator's view. And he is also very generously sharing excerpts from his books - definitely worth reading!
@Jennifer: there's also a series about water reflections...
