As an artist, do you have a favorite book or blog that you go back to over and over for inspiration? I do, and I can can open the book to any page, read maybe a page or two, and my brain kicks into overdrive. I keep this book sitting on the small table in my reading nook in my create room. It is so effective for me that sometimes I decide that I don't want to read it because it will get the wheels turning and they won't stop. This incredibly powerful book for me is "Show Your work" by Austin Kleon.

     Austin has a follow up book that I love too called "Steal Like an Artist" It seems to have a similar affect on me as "Show Your Work"  His newest book is from 2019, "Keep Going". I have yet to read this one but I'm sure its a winner too.

     What book or books do you go to again and again for inspiration? Do you have a favorite artist you follow that gets you moving creatively? Tell me in the comments. I'm looking to grow my creative library. Maybe I should do a post on my reading nook and creative library, hmmm.
