How to Be an Artist | 
“(You can always tell the artists in museums—they‘re the ones with their faces one inch from the surface of a work. Like one dog sniffing another.)”
HAAAH. I do this every time. #art

Oh, this is a good book. It's short and easy to read and there is so much on each page. It's more about how to think like an artist rather than about techniques of art.
Two of my favorite bits were “Art is a Flatworm“ and “Make Art is for Now, Not the Future.“ They are about finding what is true about yourself and being in the moment.
I may have to buy it, instead of check it out from the library. It completely delighted me.
pickI‘ve been in a creative lull lately and this book was recommended to me. I found it to be enjoyable, enlightening, and entertaining (the three E‘s). I particularly liked the prompts throughout... this added an element of engagement that very much complemented the inspirational nature of Saltz‘s message.
