The following is the master of woodcut illustration. He is a great painter Fritz Eichenberg who depicts woodcut illustrations for the greatest sisters in Britain in the 19th century: Charlotte Bronte and Emily Bronte's (Jane Eyre) and (Wuthering Heights).
By the time of this great painter, the prosperity of book publishing industry had been transferred to the United States, and Europe experienced several centuries of economic prosperity. The book publishing industry was at its peak from the 17th century to the 2th century before World War II, but Britain experienced two world wars as a whole, and its economic capacity and external expansion capacity were not as good as before, and a large number of published classic books flowed into and sold to the United States.
The United States is an independent continent, and there are few setbacks in the war. Made a fortune in the war, so the United States quickly rose rapidly in the local publishing industry, and at this time attracted a large number of outstanding European artists to come to the United States to work for it ...
Fritz Eichenberg was a German Jew. He died in 191-199 and was born in Cologne, Germany. We observe German genes, and from the sense of nationality, Germans are serious, good at thinking and serious.
In the early forties of last century, Fritz Eichenberg left Germany to immigrate to the United States in order to escape the persecution of war. He came to the American Book Club to specialize in drawing wood illustrations. In 1943, the Rand House published (Jane Eyre). The board illustration in it was drawn by Fritz Eichenberg:
His painting style highlights the spiritual storm, expressing the inner turmoil of the characters with standard woodcut art forms, and expressing the inner contradictions, gloomy feelings and uneven moods with slightly exaggerated expressions and strong black lines. In the painting style, the description of the Victorian Gothic landscape is used to balance the soul of the characters and the struggle of the present situation. It's so intense and impactful that his works can be recognized at a glance. He painted many beautiful illustrations for the famous works of world-class writers such as Poe, Tolstoy, Turgenev and Dostoevsky!
p>—————- The illustrations in Jane Eyre below were published by Shanghai Translation Publishing House in 198, with one edition and one print. The illustration in it is the illustration by Fritz Eichenberg, the American Rand House in the early 1943 edition ...
Jane loves to live in gloom and fear when she was a child.
The girls in the orphanage are mentally depressed and bullied.
Jane Eyre, a young orphan girl, is beaten by the orphanage, and her heart is silently resisting ...
Jane Eyre as an adult, on a moonlit night. Mr. Rochester, who came from Lu Yu on horseback and galloped, was perhaps destined by fate ...
Delicate and rich painting skills to depict characters' psychology. Black is dominant in black-and-white woodcuts, and the intense psychological competition and low complexity are depicted by printmaking!
This painting is the most classic. The love between Jane Eyre and Mr. Rochester is chanting poems. Love between men and women does not aim at class and money, but equal love between two hearts in the soul!

To draw CG illustrations of people, you need SAI, which is a drawing software, and its full English name is EasyPaintToolSAI. You can set tools in the software, such as brushes, erasers, pens, etc., and freely draw your favorite illustrations in the canvas interface.
Photoshop can also be used to draw illustrations. It is not only a retouching software, but also can create illustrations. It's just that many functions of SAI are more humanized than Photoshop. You can rotate and flip the canvas at will, and it is anti-aliased when zooming.
using SAI to draw illustrations also requires hand-drawn boards, and professional CG illustrations all need hand-drawn boards. Hand-drawn board is a kind of computer input equipment, which usually consists of a board and a pressure-sensitive pen. Used in painting, just like a painter's drawing board and brush. Graphics tablet can make you feel like drawing on paper with a pen. It can simulate various painters' brushes.
extended information:
"CG" was originally the English abbreviation of ComputerGraphics. With the formation of a series of related industries that use computers as the main tools for visual design and production, the field of visual design and production using computer technology is commonly called CG internationally.
it includes both technology and art, including almost all visual art creation activities in the computer age, such as the design of print, web design, three-dimensional animation, film and television special effects, multimedia technology, computer-aided design-based architectural design and industrial modeling design.
Before the introduction of CG, comics had become a mature cultural industry in Japan, and it was a popular culture deeply loved by men, women and children. There are children's cartoons, boys' cartoons, girls' cartoons, youth cartoons, women's cartoons, etc., with contents and styles covering all ages. With the increase of readers' age, old-age comics began to appear.
Although cartoonists mainly use hand-drawn drawings, and then use scanners to digitize them, many techniques such as post-it stickers use software such as photoshop. The younger generation is more and more accustomed to using digital tablet and illustratorpainer software to create directly, or using digital camera materials to process into cartoons.
