The Shape of Ideas

February 12, 2019 by Justin Kerby

Grant Snider is a wonderful illustrator, but it’s his creativity that really sets him apart. He’s constantly coming up with out of the box ideas for his illustrations that make you pause, think, and read them again.

The Shape of Ideas is his illustrated exploration of creativity. It’s full of beautiful imagery that I absolutely loved. I picked it up at the library and I’m definitely going to be buying it for some of the creative people in my life. Each page (or two) in the book stands alone, and the book itself is separated into 10 parts. Here’s one of my favorite pages (that resonates), I’ll add a link below the image if you want to check out Snider’s website at Incidental Comics.

Avoiding Procrastination

Here are a few other samples. Tough to read, but just to give you an idea of how he does his illustrations.
