Don't Call It Art

What do you do when you've lost touch with your creative spirit? Don’t call it art – just make stuff! In every creative person's life, there are times when you lose the energy, joy, and freedom you had when you were first starting out. It can feel as if everything you've worked so hard to learn until this point is more of a hinderance than a help. From the recent art school graduate to the retiree searching for their creative third act, we all need help returning to the excitement, the sense of discovery and the raw creativity of a child at play. In Don’t Call It Art , best-selling author Austin Kleon shares ten rejuvenating lessons he learned from being a studio assistant to the artists closest to his heart: his two young sons. This is a creative liberation handbook for looking at the world with fresh eyes, unlearning what you've learned and making new leaps in your life and work.
