Flesk Publications announces the availability to pre-order our upcoming book, Steve Rude: Artist in Motion. The book will be available late this fall.
 
For over two decades, Steve Rude has galvanized the art world as a comic magazine artist and illustrator. Now, Flesk Publications proudly releases this oversized color collection detailing Rude’s distinguished career.
 
The book explores Rude’s versatility in several subjects and mediums. Chapters cover his comics and illustration work, private commissions, animation material, life-drawings, and an elaborate sketchbook section. Numerous finished paintings are accompanied by preliminary work, such as sketches, color roughs, and use of reference materials. In addition, there is a “how-to” segment, which shows a painting project from start to finish. Almost all of the works are scanned directly from the original artwork. Many are published for the first time.
 
208 pages, 9"x12", full color. Color cover with dust jacket, over 300 illustrations and sketches and nearly three-dozen photographs featured. Hardbound $39.95 and Deluxe limited signed edition $59.95 are available.
 
Full details and sample images can be found on our website.
