Book excerpt: Sketches from the Heart of a Texas Artist - The Sketchbook, is a short story about an artist in search of self-actualization. Mona Lamar is a jewelry designer and Dallas Design District gallery owner, whose passion and lustful vulnerability grows with so much fervor that she is pulled by the forces of nature to overcome her fears in pursuit of self actualization. Mona accepts her Hero's Journey with passion and doesn't look back. As she's chased by her dark shadow of despair, she hijacks a boat, sails through the Caribbean, falls in love, becomes entranced by an enchanted priestess, and receives instructions to return to her place of birth, New Orleans, to understand and accept her ultimate truths. This book leaves hundreds of blank pages for you to sketch and journal as you accept your Hero's Journey.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Sketches from the Heart of a Texas Artist' is a creative response to the pain and suffering that occurs as a result of sexual abuse. This story shines a light on the aftermath of the wreckage, on the introspective journey one must embark upon in efforts to overcome the darkness, depression, and feelings of self hatred that linger long after the abuse occurs. It shines a light on what happens to our sexuality after it's been used against us, hurled in our faces, scorned and left for the wolves while shadows of despair loom over our souls, teasing and taunting us until we have no choice but to journey inward to find the path that will lead us out of darkness and into light.

THE ARTIST. This image is from the shortened version of Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865), 'The Nursery Alice' (1889/90). The fantasy world on the other side of the rabbit hole has influenced literary retellings, artwork, music, film, and pushed the boundaries of the magical world by reminding us there is no limit to the madness or the creativity of the creator. THE FINAL WORD. As William Morris said, Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.
Download or read book Sketchbook Confidential written by Editors of North Light Books and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2010-10-14 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pulsing with ideas, energy and inspiration, Sketchbook Confidential offers a rare peek inside the personal sketchbooks of 40+ master artists. From colorful painted sketches to spontaneous napkin doodles, from the intensely personal to the purely whimsical, most of the work here was produced quickly and never intended for public view. It is honest and immediate, fresh and fearless. In their own words, the artists share the intentions and inspirations behind their sketching. For some, it is a cherished, everyday habit—a way of wandering through the ideas in their mind, playing around with new subjects, or just having some anything-goes kind of fun. For others, sketching is a deliberate tool for problem-solving—working through a composition, capturing a moment's light or test-driving a color scheme. As you turn the pages you'll be immersed in the creative processes of these individuals, arriving on the other side with a feeling of kinship and a renewed desire to boldly capture life in your own sketchbooks!
