Art & Fear

Observations On the Perils (and Rewards) of Artmaking
Book • 2001
Art & Fear delves into the way art gets made, the reasons it often doesn't get made, and the nature of the difficulties that cause many artists to give up.

The authors, David Bayles and Ted Orland, share insights and observations drawn from their personal experiences as artists.

The book addresses universal fears and self-doubt that artists face, emphasizing the importance of pushing through these fears to grow as artists and individuals.
