The Art of Getting Started

Book excerpt: Popular illustrator Lee Crutchley is no stranger to creative blocks. Whether he's working for a corporate client or creating his own art, Crutchley has faced that blank page (and tablet screen) more times than he can count -- and through trial and error and sheer force of will, he's come up with a range of lively prompts, activities, and challenges that help to shift the perspective and get those creative juices flowing again in new and surprising ways. This upbeat, interactive, and very cool book will be any creative person's best friend -- filled with inspiration, humor, wisdom, commiseration, and help whenever the reader needs it most.
