Make Art or Die Trying

A great book on creativity. This book is packed full of interesting and accessible ideas to boost creativity and creative thinking. Anyone running workshops, teaching, looking after children, or just wanting to light a spark in their life will find a lot of fresh ideas. There are activities for solo artists, groups or community level projects. All can be tweaked to fit most situations. I feel this book will become the new "must have" and will easily be sold outside of the traditional bookshop. Once my ARC has expired, I will be buying my own copy.

Its art, alright! Thank you netgalley and Quarto Publishing for access to the digital ARC. As someone who loved art as a child but finds it hard to start now as an adult, I find envy in reading this artful title. Its just that the whole title evokes a sense of living art, from the way it is presented with color and photos, to the way the prompts lead you to think about the art being presented. Its unique, I haven't read anything like it, oh and the QR code videos where such a cool touch to add in to the book. It may take a while to digest and work through it all but my art will be better for it! Interesting read, more words than I was expecting, I suppose I thought it would be more of a wreck this journal style with more open ended prompts.

For one, this book is visually appealing, oh the art, the vibrancy and colors and not just that- the way it involves the reader, calling you to act and try some things- made this an interesting read.
Anyone who is new to art, or an expert could learn a lot from this book.
Thanks Netgalley for the eARC.
