An Artist's Book of Inspiration by Astrid Fitzgerald
Gathered during one person's life of making art and studying the spiritual traditions, this is a collection of the best thoughts on art, artists, and the creative process, drawn from different traditions, times and places. It is meant as a guide and an inspiration for all those who want to be reminder of the sources of creativity amid the fractured confusion of the contemporary scene.
'The nature and contribution of art has been hidden in recent times, buried under a too-rational and mechanical worldThis beautiful and inspiring collection is honest, fresh, and enlightening. I hope it marks a return to the depths of art. Read these great words and make a manifesto of them, or at least guidelines toward the rehumanization of art and our world.' -- Thomas Moore, author of Care of the Soul and The Reenchantment of Everyday Life 'This eclectic and intelligent collection of artists' discoveries, explorations and insights guides its readers into the myriad byways of the creative life. These brief quotations act not only as maps but also as divining rods, awakening one's own perceptions on how the world may spring more imaginatively alive.' -- Jane Hirschfield, poet and editor of Women in Praise of the Sacred
