Practical self-help for artists who want to free their creativity. Art from Intuition offers artists everywhere a unique system for freeing their own creative intuition; the sixth sense that directs an artistrsquo;s drive and work. By letting go of the self-criticism; doubt; and insecurity that discourage artmaking; artists will be able to soar to new heights of creativity. More than 60 practical exercises take the reader from the most basic intuitive art to more sophisticated techniques. Each exercise; supported by step-by-step instructions; is accessible to artists at every level; and the exercises can be done in any order. After each chapter; readers are encouraged to follow up by evaluating their drawings or paintings to see how they reflect their own personal goals. Works of art by students and contemporary artists exemplify how exciting and how productive a freer; more intuitive approach to making art can be.From the Trade Paperback edition.

I went to Norms store last year and he actually shows me some the photos that appear in the back and I almost bought that 1960 gold hardware Jazzmaster (coulda shoulda; woulda).Norm and his staff were gracious in my visit and did not have any attitude about being a "guitar to the stars" shop.In fact; Norm had just gotten some collection of super rare arch tops (really one of a kind stuff) and he enthusiastically showed it off and let me play several of them. These things probably did end up in the hands of music royalty but I had the opportunity to play them.I have a decent guitar collection and everything Norm says about the disease is true. The old guitars just sound better.Im not rock royalty; just a music fan that loves rock; blues; Fender and Gibson. Im already looking forward to my next trip to the store and maybe I wont get cold feet on a big purchase next time.Hearing the old stories about how this was all done pre-internet was a hoot and all the celebrity stories are fun.Thanks for a great mini-escape Norm!3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Couldnt put it down !By TruckerGreat book.. As a lover of quality built guitars it was so interesting to see how Norm got started in the business. The man had amazing drive and determination and a great vision on what would be sought after and highly coveted decades later- original guitars in great condition... If youre a lover of guitars I highly recommend this book.. I look forward to visiting the store on my next trip to the west coast.. Thanks for documenting and preserving so many fine specimens Norm !!!!!4 of 4 people found the following review helpful.
