ILLUMINART 2 follows the success of the acclaimed Book 1 and Dalek Art Book, Exterminart!
It continues to showcase the work from a career of over fifty years in the publishing industry. The second volume of a Trilogy covers even more of his Doctor Who art – the Target and BBC VHS classic covers, poster prints, calendar art and much more. Also featured are sketches, preliminary drawings, in-progress images and unpublished and unseen artworks, his ‘Hidden Dimensions’, accompanied by commentaries from himself and fans giving an intimate insight into the process of his art.

A Personal Message from Andrew Skilleter
“Welcome to Book 2 of the ILLUMINART Trilogy! The book design is completed and I think it looks better than ever. Copies will be ready to send ASAP in September. The cost of print and production has soared but we are absorbing these and have kept the price of this special edition the same as Book 1. I’m pleased to feature an ambitious new artwork along with the next set of Target and BBC VHS covers, poster prints, calendar pieces and more plus some unseen/unpublished art! ILLUMINART 2 has striking design and the excellent print quality of Book 1 will be maintained. It’s in my DNA to deliver high quality on all fronts.”
