I want students to feel enticed, delighted, and in love with the process of making &#8211; this is exactly what I feel as I read Koene&#8217;s book on drawing. In fact, I&#8217;m having a hard time making it through, because every few pages I just have to put it down and draw. For anyone looking to develop a drawing habit, this is a must have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bookshop.org\/a\/81585\/9780593541012\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"235\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/mindfulartstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Draw-Yourself-Calm-235x300.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-52899\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/bookshop.org\/a\/81585\/9780593541012\" target=\"_blank\">Draw Yourself Calm: Draw Slow to Stress Less<\/a>, Amy Maricle<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It may be a bit cheeky of me to include my own book in this year&#8217;s list of my favorites, but I made this book for you, and I want you to have it. I think you&#8217;ll love all the step by step nature-inspired patterns and the many, many invitations to make this practice your own. I hope to entice you to draw more, and look for your own patterns in nature everywhere you go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bookshop.org\/a\/81585\/9781783529353\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"242\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/mindfulartstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/The-Unwinding-242x300.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-52898\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/bookshop.org\/a\/81585\/9781783529353\" target=\"_blank\">The Unwinding, And Other Dreamings<\/a>, Jackie Morris<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to be swept away, to be inspired, to be transported into a world a of dreams and possibility, and creative joy, then pick up this book.

When she felt hopeless and dark in the midst of difficulty, she decided to start listing and drawing simple things she looked forward to each day. I find Blackall&#8217;s illustrations and words gorgeous in their celebration of the joy of simple things and experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"243\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/mindfulartstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Painting-the-Feminine-243x300.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-52905\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/conniesolera.com\/painting-the-feminine-book\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Painting the Feminine<\/a>, Connie Solera<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Painting the Feminine is a wonderfully inviting art journal full of gorgeous imagery, and you are invited to paint ALL OVER IT. It&#8217;s an art journal full of starting places and themes centering around embracing the power of the feminine in all of us.  Unfortunately for the moment it looks like pre-ordering is closed, but my guess is if you sign up for her list, you&#8217;ll know when the next round might be available. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Creativity: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bookshop.org\/a\/81585\/9780764359187\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"254\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/mindfulartstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Motherhood-of-Art-254x300.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-52895\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/bookshop.org\/a\/81585\/9780764359187\" target=\"_blank\">The Motherhood of Art<\/a>, Marissa Huber + Heather Kirtland<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a beautiful, inspiring book made for mothers who are artists, mothers who think perhaps they could dare to make art, and mothers who haven&#8217;t dared to create, but wish they could. Real women speak to the difficulties and joys of balancing making and mothering. You&#8217;ll be inspired by their spaces and their work, and validated by their words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/penland.org\/shop\/product\/paulus-berensohnfinding-ones-way-with-clay\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"227\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/mindfulartstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Finding-Ones-Way-with-Clay-227x300.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-52893\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/penland.org\/shop\/product\/paulus-berensohnfinding-ones-way-with-clay\/\" target=\"_blank\">Finding One&#8217;s Way with Clay<\/a>, Paulus Berensohn<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While I never had the opportunity to meet Paulus, I&#8217;ve been touched deeply by his work, and find so many connections between our approaches and beliefs about the creative process. While this book is about working with clay, it&#8217;s also very much a work about how to embrace the creative process, and how to create in a mindful, enriching way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bookshop.org\/a\/81585\/9780761178972\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"298\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/mindfulartstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Show-Your-Work-298x300.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-52892\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bookshop.org\/a\/81585\/9780761178972\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Show Your Work<\/a>, Austin Kleon<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Be validated.
