This is the Fifteenth Golden Secret in my book, The Golden Secrets of Drawing.
Get the book here:
Amazon in the USA amzn.to/4gBsb3L
Amazon in the UK amzn.to/3TK7IzQ
You can also see the book as a flipbook on my website when you sub to my online library shoorayner.com/the-golden-secrets-of-drawing-online-flipbook
It is NOT a how to draw book. It has no advice about pencils or shading. It is all about your frame of mind as a creative person, clearing out all the reasons and excuses that hinder the simple act of picking up a pencil and making a mark on a piece of paper.
I like to think of this book as a comfort blanket for creative people who need a little boost to their confidence. It also has a nice, soft feel to the cover.
