WertheimerA book with great insight into the process of making art and the things that keep us from making art. There are many gems that you read and go "Aha! Thats me - I do that all the time." As they say in most addiction treatment modalities. recognizing the problem is half the battle. This book was a great mirror to my creative self and my creative blocks and was a source of comfort and inspiration. It is good to know that we are not the only ones that struggle with the creative process. But it is also wonderful to see other ways to expand your creative process. Shedding the cloak of self reprisal for our ideas and processes is a wonderful lesson. It is all too difficult to do. but again. recognizing this is the first step to changing it. This isnt a book about a formulaic way to make art. but a book about finding your own inner warrior and embracing and accepting your own individual creative processes. It is also a book about looking outside yourself and inside yourself at the same time to find your creative process. Consume this book. Digest it. Ruminate on its ideas and its lessons. And if you allow yourself to embrace these lessons. you will become the artist you want to be.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great PerspectivesBy Julie WeinsteinIm not an artist. though I do some writing. Nevertheless. this book changed the way I look at the world. opened my eyes and my thought processes. allowed me to see how I might see and do things differently in my life and my own field. Art has to engage the public. and the public is very different now in this age of technology. Wendy Richmond takes her wealth of knowledge (of art as well as history and literature) to really look at the world from both global and very minute and personal perspectives. What is art now? How incorporate technology to make art that allows you to maintain your artistic integrity. vision. and skills. yet also engages? Richmond clearly loves looking and thinking about everything. and her writing is engaging in the way of a great and intimate conversation.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. a godsendBy M.P.Im an artist whos been struggling with my work a bit lately. Feeling a bit isolated and tired. I needed a jump-start. This book was exactly what I was looking for. It was enjoyable. intelligent. thought-provoking. and inspiring. Im going to read it again and give it to every other artist I know.
