What Parents Should Know
Perfectionism, insecurity, getting started -- these are all
important topics for budding students to think about, and
discuss with their parents.
Common Sense Media Review
Focusing on perfectionism and insecurity as well as artistic
process, the author shows in a humorous and kind way that
getting started can be the hardest part in creative endeavor.
With expressive illustrations in watercolor, ink, and tea, this
elegantly designed book is profound in its simplicity. Showing
the patience and detachment of a Sufi, the art teacher quietly
but clearly shows the student that art (and by extension, all
endeavors) can begin anywhere if a single first step is
taken.
