Book Review:
Written in the style of pin-it notes, this book is colorful in both design and word craft.
The author is a master at engaging your attention and advises with humor and empathy. Easy to read, carry, and re-read it’s a good way to get started on the days when you lack motivation. My daughter is an artist and she was eight when she read the book and she loved how colorful and funny it was. So age is no bar when it comes to gifting this book. A must-have book for your home library and a great gift for an artist.
