Art from Your Core

A practical, holistic guide to the discovery and development of the art that each individual was born to make.

Through real-life examples and exercises, Art from Your Core tears down the cultural, educational, and psychological obstacles to finding an authentic visual voice. It explores methodologies to tap into the subconscious, cultivate breakthroughs, create environments to maximise the gestation of ideas, and instil bravery to produce deeply layered, unique works of art.

In addition to helping undergraduate and graduate students who are looking to identify, articulate, and hone their artistic vocabularies, this volume serves as a tool for established artists to step up or refresh their practice. It is a book that artists will keep on the studio shelf, to pick up time and time again, as their responses to the exercises will change throughout the course of their career.
