The Art of Bolt by Mark Cotta Vaz is a lavish 160-page hardcover that invites animation lovers behind the scenes of Disney’s 2008 sci-fi adventure. Oversized pages burst with concept sketches, color scripts, and finished stills, all reproduced in rich detail beneath the protective dust jacket.
Vaz, veteran chronicler of film art, traces the visual evolution of Bolt from early storyboards to final frame, spotlighting character designs, digital painting techniques, and the subtle nod to classic comic-book aesthetics. The result is a vibrant resource for students of animation, collectors of movie art books, and anyone who thrills to the alchemy of hand-drawn imagination meeting CG finesse.
This first-edition Chronicle Books release (China print) remains sturdy and display-worthy; a tiny edge tear on the jacket and a faint mark on the front free endpaper are the only reminders of shelf life. Weighing more than two and a half pounds, it sits handsomely on a coffee table or studio shelf, ready to spark fresh inspiration.
Used copies of The Art of Bolt rarely surface with their illustrated dust jacket intact, making this gently worn copy a budget-friendly find for fans of Disney art books, animated film archives, and performing-arts references.
