5.0 out of 5 stars A nice perspective on modern pinup art, December 12, 2006
By 
Todd Callaway (Valencia, California United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Joe Chiodo's How To Draw And Paint Pin-Ups (Paperback)
I have been practicing art, mainly pin-up art as only a past time for the last year or so. I have bought many books and gone through various methods. I really dig this book. In the introduction he mentions all of the past artists that should be researched and the importance and style of pin up art. He addresses throughout the accetuations that separates a pin up girl from a life portrait. He also tries to keep up with modern times with where 'sexy' art is.

His methodology was great, I wish there was more, but with his great examples you get plenty. He has some nice break downs, from pencil to paint, all the while pointing out key ingredients. He deffinitely has inspired some good art out of me already.

This review is from: Joe Chiodo's How To Draw And Paint Pin-Ups (Paperback)
I have a ton of How to's at home and this is not one of my top 5. I read the reviews and one mentioned the lessons on painting was worth the price of the book. He/She lied. It's okay but it was so minute. Now I have it in my collection because its difficult to find and a good resale. Not so much due to the quality of content.

Chiodo has a varied style of female interpretation. I like his short, sweet explanations, his easy instructions, and his ease of "your art, your style" attitude. A great artist, with a great following. I will be looking into his other books soon.
