Anyone can recommend some books about illustration composition?

Chun Kit Wong

Dear all,
could anyone recommend some books about illustration composition? I am a graphic designer and my drawing still is very poor. It is time for me to learn again. Thanks for your help.

For composition, you can't go wrong with:

Framed Ink
Composing Pictures
Creative Illustration
Picture This

In no particular order. The SVS class is pretty thorough too!

Ace, do you have author names?

Andrew Loomis - Creative Illustration
Molly Bang - Picture This
Marcos Mateu-Mestre - Framed Ink
Donald W. Graham - Composing Pictures

Hope that helps.

I have only glanced through this myself, but I have heard good things about this book. Plus its in the public domain so its all available free on the internet, so it doesn't cost anything to take a look at it anyway

@Sarah-LuAnn I've never read that book. I'll put it on my iPad and give it a read tonight. Thanks

I am learning a lot from the creative composition class here if you haven't checked it out yet.
