I liked the book because it gets your creative juices flowing and is very magical! Yes, magical. She inspires you with new ideas and encourages you to come up with your own. I really like the fact that it's handwritten and that she puts little drawings in it. I didn't give it 5 stars because the book is short, and compared to her other book "Eat Mangoes Naked", it could've been better. I think her book on creativity was a little less creative than her other books. But overall, definitely worth buying if you have "artist block" (or writers block) or you just want some magic in your life.
I discovered Sark when I read Succulent Wild Woman, and I wanted to see what else she wrote. She recently updated this little volume, but I wanted to see the original before I saw the upgrade. I don't know yet what the update is like, but if it needs improvements, I sure can't see where. Like the rest that came after, A Creative Companion is a fanfare for creativity, vulnerability (if you can't let others touch your heart, how can you touch the heart of anyone else?) and it gives you permission to just be silly. Let us shout it from the rooftops! Absurdity is okay! I'm glad someone is brave enough to say it! This slim volume is perfect if you're curious about Sark and her message, but don't know where to begin. Enjoy!
Ordered enough copies to give to all of the Artist's that attended an Art Retreat. The ideas in this book are very helpful for Artists that need help in overcoming mental blocks when trying to be creative. SARK does a great job of producing books and sayings that relate to artists of all fields...Music, dance, theater, painters, and many others. I highly recommend this book.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
Short book but great as SARK always is! I wish there was more to it as you can read it in one sitting. SARK is great and I always feel energized after reading anything of hers!
Sark is motivating and can get you up and going with your creativity! Just a fun colorful read! Go for it!
