Are you ready to dive into the world of creativity and discover your true artistic self? Becoming an Artist offers an encouraging and inspiring journey that invites artists of all levels to embrace their unique paths. If you've ever felt self-doubt or hesitated to create because you fear failure, this book is here to show you that it's perfectly okay to let go of perfection.
With the warmth of an internet “art dad,” Scott Christian Sava connects with over four million artists, helping them to realize that art isn't just about technical skills or success. It's about experimentation, learning to forgive yourself for mistakes, and ultimately finding joy in the process. The notion that you can’t be “too old” to start making art is reinforced throughout the pages, so whether you're a beginner or someone who hasn't picked up a brush in years, this book is your reminder to just create.
In Becoming an Artist, you'll find a mix of storytelling, wisdom, and over 50 captivating black-and-white watercolor illustrations, all crafted during a chaotic week in New York City. This isn't a straightforward manual on technique; instead, it encourages you to let your imagination soar and be okay with being weird, imperfect, and human.
If you’ve ever wondered if your art can improve or if you’ll ever truly like what you create, this book assures you that with practice and a lot of patience, growth is indeed possible. So get ready to reclaim your artistic side, embrace the journey, and make room for joy in your creative process.
Becoming an Artist isn’t just a book—it's your permission slip to explore, fail, and rise again with each stroke of your brush. It's time to enjoy the ride and discover the artist within you!
