Customer Reviews

very uplifting mixed media inspiration

Brackney creatively mixes in to the text her doodles, scribbled notes, cartoons, pictures, old photos, and other unexpected artifacts, and adds in an abundance of her own biographical up- from-the-bottom tales to make this small volume a sprightly tonic for despairing individuals, whether professional artist or other person looking for a quick pick-me-up.

Down to earth book!!

I picked this book because I liked the title. Then I saw that the author/artist SARK had a comment on the bottom of the front cover saying she loved this book and I knew I had to buy it. I love reading SARK's books, so I knew I'd like this too! It's a down to earth book with small drawlings inside to invoke your imagination. She shares her experiences and how she finally got published. She talks about the importance of money and keeping a job to enable you to continue creating. She gives very good advise that makes you feel like your not crazy or alone. She doesn't leave anyone out, she includes artists, dancers, choreographers, songerwriters, muscians, writers, and of course the artist-at-heart!!I also like that at the end of the book in the appendix she included other books and websites for people to look into to help them on their creative path. This book is a must read!!
