Dear Wonderful, Creative You: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each fall I compile a list of my favorite art books. My hope is to inspire you to keep your world brimming with creative inspiration and encouragement,<\/strong> as I find this is an essential part of feeding my own art practice. This year, I’ve included a few books I’ve read in 2019, but it’s mostly my art book wish list for 2019. I hope you put some of these on your wish list, and I’d love to hear which art books you loved in 2019 in the comments.

A Big Important Artist: A Womanual<\/a> – Danielle Krysa<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After I read A Big Important Art Book, Now with Women<\/a>, of course I’ve been waiting eagerly for the follow up, full of creative projects and inspiration. She had me at sarcastic feminist art book.

Find Your Creative Voice: The Essential Guide to Working Your Creative Magic<\/a> – Lisa Congdon<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I pretty much love everything this woman puts out into the world in terms of books. She is all about creative empowerment and having fun with art.

The Joy of Swimming: A Celebration of Our Love for Getting in the Water<\/a> – Lisa Congdon<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ahem – yes, another Lisa Congdon book, and we are still in the titles that I am wishing for, and this one made the list another year too, I think, so – hello – husband? Do you ever read this blog? No? That’s okay.

The Sketchbook Project World Tour<\/a> – Steven Peterman<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You probably know I LOVE The Sketchbook Project, and have 1 journal in the collection, and am working on a second. (Slowly, slowly.) I’ve been wanting this book full of sketchbook inspiration from all over the world for a while. When I sat in the Sketchbook Library where the majority of the sketchbooks are housed and paged through several, it was a moving experience. You can read more about my Sketchbook Project journal here<\/a>.

Finding Water: The Art of Perseverance<\/a> – Julia Cameron<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This September I had the honor of teaching at The Gathering of the Creatives with Julia Cameron. During her keynote, she talked about a number of the exercises from this book – which is all about overcoming creative droughts. I can’t wait to sink into it.
