This Book Thinks You're An Artist is packed with imaginative and fun activities. It encourages aspiring artists to envision their unique, eccentric artist persona and then covers seven crucial topics: observation, drawing, color patterns, design, sculpture, and the art of stealing ideas (be inspired and potentially offend your viewers!). With each page offering a different project, the book takes a lighthearted and playful approach, providing everything necessary to create a work of art inspired by renowned artists or movements. Activities range from constructing a Bruegel circus, playing a Surrealist game, selling a simple doodle for a million dollars, and even painting your face like a Russian Futurist. The end of the book features a section on paper-based crafts, including a kit for building a viewfinder and making a mini-manifesto book.

  • This book takes a more creative approach than traditional activity books
