Publisher Description
This book is duct tape for the mouth of every artist's inner critic. Silencing that stifling voice once and for all, this salve for creatives introduces 10 truths they must face in order to defeat self-doubt. Each encouraging chapter deconstructs a pivotal moment on the path to success - fear of the blank page, the dangers of jealousy, sharing work with others - and explains how to navigate roadblock.
Packed with helpful anecdotes, thoughts from successful creatives, and practical exercises gleaned from Danielle Krysa's years of working with professional and aspiring artists, this audiobook arms listeners with the most essential tool for their toolbox: the confidence they need to get down to business and make good work.
Customer Reviews
Very much needed.
I needed this so much. I’m a mom, I work in finance, and an artist. I started oil painting at 12. I was encouraged so much as a young teen but then I hit adulthood and suddenly, everyone became a jerk. “Find a real job.” I’m not sure what I expected but it was definitely more love and support from my family who had cheered for me all through school. I have been going through a block for months. Off social media for months. And this little book I found (while helping my son write a paper at the library) was just what I needed to stop wallowing and start creating again. I bought the written version which contains so much cute endearing imagery. I needed this more than you know. And just understand you helped this one, very depressed, lost artist get back in her studio again.
