Get Beyond Boredom with Books to Keep You Busy- and Brilliant
My kids and I spent a soggy Saturday afternoon indoors filling the pages of the mom & me, full-color art journal, for moms and kids to color, draw and share together. With vibrant pages to write each other letters, draw pictures, be free to imagine, "create and connect, side by side". Infusing appealing artwork from Bethany Robertson paired with creative prompts from licensed art therapist Lacy Mucklow, here's an interesting way to get the conversation started.
I became instantly mesmerized by the peace in the process of drawing dangles. Bringing symmetry to doodles, dangles are a creative, whimsical new form of art. Colorful charms, swirls, and curls created about stylish lettering and designs, become fantastic dangles. Featuring 50 projects, The Art of Drawing Dangles includes fun patterns and colorful designs to create personalized dangles with charms designs, designed by you. Creating dangles is a decorative idea to accentuate stationary, invitations, letters, and other paper crafts.
Managing to place one single sticker on a notebook before my daughter, my frenemy took over the book, these stickers are so much more than your ordinary stickers. Stick it to 'Em features unique design in addition to allowing you to create customized stickers. Silly and sassy, this fun book demonstrates drawing and lettering techniques with step-by-step tutorials, including more than 35 pages of designed stickers, with stickers to color, and blank stickers to create your own colorful creations. The witty puns and wisecracks in Stick it to 'Em are everything!
I love hand lettering, and often find myself needing inspiration for new, creative styles. Hand Lettering A to Z is a hands-on book where artist and calligrapher Abbey Sy demonstrates her creative lettering talents and features guest artists from around the world to contribute hand drawn alphabets of their own techniques. Knowing that hand lettering does not require the disciplined study of calligraphy inspires me and creatives of all ability to refine my own hand-drawn lettering skills.
