Immonen’s Centifolia Coming Soon!

IMMONEN'S CENTIFOLIA COMING SOON!

Immonen’s CentifoliaWhether you fondly remember his work from Superman or just recently caught his work on Ultimate Spider-Man, Stuart Immonen is an artist whose work belongs on everyone’s shelf. If you’re a process junkie like Josh, Immonen’s Centifolia is the book for you. “[My sketchbooks] get filled with unfinished work– really loose gesture poses, ideas I find funny but lack a larger context, experiments with various tools or styles, sketches ‘en plein air’, short sequentials and more formal work that eventually gets fleshed out for my website, or some other project. Centifolia contains the ‘best’ of that stuff.” (from an interview by Chris Arrant @ Newsarama.com)
