Description

The bestselling cult classic that offers a roadmap to overcoming the daily obstacles of a creative life

Filled with reminders and insights that every artist and creator needs to hear. I always keep a copy of Art & Fear on my bookshelf.

Artists confront their deeper fears daily. It's inevitable in artmaking. This book is a crucial tool in validating, soothing, and navigating the fear that might otherwise stop an artist from making their work. Fear is unavoidable but it need not dictate the artist's choices. This book is a vital companion.

An essential text for anyone who wants to start making art and not stop. One of those rare books - like The Artist's Way and Writing Down the Bones - to keep close by for courage and company.

It has earned its reputation for being a useful, underground classic ... it's a pithy, though comforting read, written by artists, and gets straight down to what can hinder our development as artists, and why ... refreshingly absent of psycho-babble or opaque art-speak

One of those books you want to tell everyone you know to read

A book that artists continue to recommend and connect with ... It's concise, clear, compelling and worth coming back to over and over

A roadmap for overcoming the everyday obstacles of a creative life
