Synopsis

So many readers struggle with finding their own voice and with knowing which skills and artistic direction to focus on in order to create a look that doesn't mirror everyone else's, but which they can feel good about as being uniquely their own.
In this book, the reader is introduced to 15 contributing artists - each with a new art-making technique to share as well as a brief glimpse at their own stories of how they discovered how to make a look that is uniquely theirs.
Throughout the book, the author encourages the reader with suggestions for making their approach to the techniques unique and helps them see how to put it all together to make it work for their success.
Inside you'll find:
* 17 of the artists' favorite mixed-media techniques shown step by step, with suggestions for how to make them your own
* Beautiful finished art illustrating how individual artists use and combine these techniques in their own work
* Easy worksheets to help reveal your artistic skills, strengths and preferences
