I first did a quick read through - what the author specifically tells you not to do! There were great tools and regular challenges suggested to permit opportunities for creative breakthrough and access to otherwise dormant processes. I'm now currently in the process of re-reading and following along the exercises and would suggest to anyone looking for a deeper creative perspective. At minimum, it's worth a try!

A nice book for artists struggling to seek meaning in higher creativity.

“The Artist’s Way: 30th Anniversary Ed” is a nice book about art and the artist experience. Not a book on drawing, but more about how to get in touch with the artistic side and understanding what it takes to be an artist. This books takes the reader on a 12 week workshop with exercises in critical and creative thinking that explore the artist life for help in opening up the artist inside. It reviews what it takes to be creative and the connection to the spiritual path. Not what I expected, but I am still pleased with the book. Easy read. If you are not spiritual and an artist, I am not sure it is the read you would want. I particularly like the check-ins. This is a nice book for artists looking to understand their art and push it to a path of spiritual creativity.

don't think. just do it!

I am naturally skeptical, and I don't like to be a devotee of any movement, but this book will unblock your creativity if you do the exercises and let the changes happen. That's all I'm going to say. If you're reading this review, someone put this book on your radar. Do something good for yourself and try it out.

Love!
