The third volume of Illusive sports a bluish green fabric cover. which turns blue when the cover is tilted away. I like the colour part, but hate the fabric part because it collects dust easily. The pages are high quality art matte paper.

Illusive is a top notch contemporary art series and volume 3 maintains that standard. Majority of the illustrations are created with traditional medium. There are over 200 artists featured from all over the world and the quality is really high.

My favourite section is the one on tactile illustrations. It features a lot of really cool paper art. Think fine art and graphic design created using paper, not ON paper. The paper graphics of Yulia Brodskaya are really creative and beautiful.

The other section which I like is the pen and ink chapter. There are some really intricate line art and amazing technical prowess going on there.

The layout of the book is nice. There are some interviews and at the back is the index with the artists' websites.

Illusive is an inspirational contemporary art series. Recommended to illustrators and graphic designers.
