TOUR OF THE UNIVERSE -the airbrush art of Dan Cote
FIRST PRINTING - 1995. 22 pages, color. 4 cover variations. purple foil / gold shards holofoil / silver brick holofoil / silverscribble holofoil. EACH WILL BE SIGNED BY THE ARTIST/CO-CREATOR, Dan Cote.
This is a very rare book that has never seen a second printing. It also represents Dans departure from hand airbrushed art as he moved into the digital world of rendering. He still has his beloved aribrush and compressor and vows when he has ample studio space will pursue it again, considering the joy the medium brought him.

I created this work using adobe illustrator for 95% of the rendering process, including the lettering. Photoshop plays a part in the finishing and layering and special effects. Because it took 4 years due to day job restrictions, a reader can see the progression of the creative growth as they dig in. In other words, it just gets better and better. Fun to read. Fun just to look at. A real gem.
