Food for the mind and soul

This is the kind of book you read slowly, put it down, think about the chapter you've just read, and then go back to read it again with fresh eyes, open mind and new understanding. This is high on my list of "books you must read". As an artist, it is really food for the mind and soul.

consumer

I found this book extremely helpful. I would recommend this book to any artist who finds themselves frustrated or contemplating quiting their art because of set backs or lack of self confidence.

Good resource with great thoughts

I bought this book as a requirement for a BFA senior level course. It is a very worthy purchase, though the tone can be somewhat negative at times, but I believe that must might be because it is an honest look at what it feel like to be an artist in today's market.

Encouraging for Artists, Art Students, or anyone who loves Art

Art & Fear
This book was recommended to me by my professor and she was right. This book has helped me reduce fear in my art work, it has been a big help.

A must-read for every artist

An excellent short overview of the psychology of the artistic process. It confirms feelings and processes are "normal" and also introduces some ideas over which to ponder. Very easy to read, this book is a breath of fresh air, which can be read all a once or just pick out your favourite section. I will keep it in a prominent place to give me inspiration.
