5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommend this book!, February 27, 2000
By K. D. Mullen (New Hampshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I haven't been able to put this one down. This book has given me the courage to begin making my art again. Every time I pick it up, I get ideas for paintings, drawings. I like how it is written like an art class, and has activities to get you unstuck. The activities are just vague enough to get you thinking of possibilities. This is far and away the best book to get you going!

5.0 out of 5 stars This book with discepline will rejuvinate your mind., May 24, 1999
By A Customer
This book has been a great inspiration to me in revisiting my talents in art and many other things such as graphic design & music. The Creative Artist has opened my mind and helped me to reach farther goals through its guidence and activities. There is also some very inspirational quotes. I highly recomend this book to beginners and those who have gotten caught up in daily life and need to refind themselves.

5.0 out of 5 stars A journey through knowledge, experience and spirit, December 17, 2000
By Lalu-1900 (Capital Federal Argentina) - See all my reviews
Nita Leland's book not only gives ideas to develop your understanding and appreciation of art, but quotes artists' thoughts about their art and even their difficulties in achieving what they were looking for. She gives"tips" to release the creator in you, encourages hard and constant work as a way to loosen up and discover your skills beyond shape and color. She explains how after an accidental stain or assemblage of papers, fabrics and objects, you can get to artistic creation by emphasizing and developing the "accident" by means of color knowledge, tehnique and sensitive approach.
