It can help you bring your best version.

Austin Kleon's book Steal Like An Artist is a book that can help you bring the best version of yourself, if you strictly follow the 10 commandments he mentioned. It's a simple and small book with condensed and filtered content that can rekindle your creativity and increase your productivity.

It's all in the title

At first I was put off by the title. but kept reading. The author makes some good points over all but at times gave me the feeling of "why do it, it's already been done". The main thing it did for me was push me to do something different and out of the norm. Now I try to add something or approach my art in a different way!

This is a great book for when you're stuck

I read this years ago and then just re-read it last week. It's such a good way to give yourself a kick. It's a small/short book but well worth picking up.

Stealing ideas just like an artist

Great little book to pick up and read when you have only a few moments here and there. Glad to have it in my forever collection.
