Best Art Books of 2012

From Indian folklore to Paris vs. NYC, by way of Japanese Wonderland and 80 years of loving of dogs.
Brain Pickings review comes up with some classics and loads of beautifully illustrated and crafted books as well as a few to get us thinking more creativity.

My favorite is 'Steel like an Artist' by Austin Kleon that gives us the qualities for a creative and engaging life. 

The link is worth a scan.... and if you love dog cartoons you must scan to the end with gems like..

"Dont you get it? It was never about the stick, I sent you there to find yourself"

    I’m influenced by contemporary issues and interested in questioning everyday patterns by intervening and provoking alternative forms of discourse.

    I hope that my artworks assist to transition a viewer to make connections between disparate ideas and give a different perspective on something they are already aware of.

    Above all I value the awake, curious and creative mind that cross pollinates ideas to join the dots and build new ideas.
