Synopsis:
The Everyday Work of Art redefines the way we think of art and shows a practical way of making the creative process a part of the things you do each day. Author Eric Booth speaks to the artist in each of us by using exercises and personal anecdotes to simplify artistic skills, and demonstrating how to apply these skills in day-to-day living.
The work of art will creep into all aspects of your life, enriching how you play with your children, what you give to your personal relationships and how you do your job. This down-to-earth book takes the mystery of the arts and puts it into your hands to make a joyful difference in the quality of your everyday life.
