The Art of Being an Artist is about how an artist learns, thinks and functions. Through fascinating stories, more than eighty historical and contemporary color illustrations, and step-by-step explanations, this book cuts to the heart of what it takes to be a successful artist. It is about the nitty-gritty thoughts and choices made in the art studio on a daily basis. The ideas discussed go well beyond mere technical decisions. They present concepts that help to establish a personal philosophy and direction in an artist's work. From beginning to professional artists, students and teachers of art, and anyone who has ever had a desire to make art or simply loves art will find useful answers to provocative questions such as: Should you doubt your ability to make art? How can your drawing skills be improved? Do you know how to read a painting? Is creating abstract art different from realistic art? When is your artwork truly finished? Does art criticism help or hinder your success? Finally, this book is about the mystery of creativity and its significance as an essential part of a well-grounded and meaningful life.
