Description

In this stunning book, discover the artistic journey of Bryce Kho, an illustrator and mixed-media artist known for his vibrant, intricate, and nostalgic artwork.

In Overflow, Bryce delves into the state of flow when creating art. "The sensation was different than a normal flow state, which is more about effortlessness. Instead, the feeling was akin to lucid dreaming inside my mind's eye. So vivid that I felt as if I was drawing from a live model."

Bryce's portfolio spans a range of roles including illustrator and concept artist, contributing to projects such as Homestead Arcana and Aegis Defenders. After a first collaboration with Sabotage doing illustrations for The Messenger, Bryce joined the team as Lead Concept Artist to handle all things concept art and character design on Sea of Stars, a retro-inspired RPG that has captivated over 5 million players worldwide. The popularity of 3dtotal's recent publication Sea of Stars: The Concept Art of Bryce Kho (over 12,000 copies sold), which is based solely on his work for development of the video game, has raised the artist's profile and proven his popularity among our readership and further afield.

In Overflow: The Art of Bryce Kho, based entirely on the artist's personal art career and journey, he takes the reader behind the scenes into his studio and personal sketchbooks, and also reveals his creative process from start to finish in detailed step-by-step tutorials. Existing fans will be thrilled to discover new insights into Bryce's working methods and creative story, while those just discovering his art will love delving into galleries of his artwork, new and old.
