Publisher's Summary

From artist, psychiatrist, and founder of The Artist's Journey courses in creativity: the path to the art and life you've dreamed of. Inspiration for your creative journey.

Art mirrors our inner state in ways that are meaningful and mysterious. Creativity is central to feeling alive.

Are you an artist tired of feeling blocked from expressing onto the canvas the art that lives deep within you? It's later than you think. You don't want to come to your final moments regretting your unlived dreams.

The worst thing you could do as an artist is avoid experimentation.

Art is about exploring wonder and the unknown, the terra incognita of the soul.

Painting is a mirror. It brings up everything, especially fear and yearning.

Slay self doubt and say yes to your artist's journey.

Overcome your fears to live your deepest life.

Explore, experiment, and create the art of your dreams on your inner journey of creation and self expression.

Paint with confidence and finally express you in your art.

Have you always dreamed of being an artist? Why put off following your dreams? Are you ready to set out on a journey of self-discovery? To develop strength, clarity, and skill as an artist?

The time to create your art is NOW.

Whether you dream of loosening up and exploring creativity; expressing yourself; healing and becoming whole; experimenting with paints, colors, and techniques; or surprising yourself with your art, The Artist's Journey is your step-by-step guide to bold self-expression.

The Artist's Journey teaches you how:

  • One mind-set shift will transform your experience of creating art 
  • One secret studio practice will ignite your creativity 
  • Two technical game changers will take your art to the next level 
  • One concept will help you create your deepest, most personal art

The Artist's Journey written by artist, author, and Stanford trained existential psychiatrist Nancy Hillis, MD, is an inspirational exhortation with psychological and philosophical underpinnings, to move you closer and closer to your deepest self expression in your art and life.

If you want a comprehensive, clearly explained, psychologically sophisticated map and self-help guidebook for your creative self-expression, start here, with The Artist's Journey.

Start your journey of self-expression today.

Boring and uninspiring.

I trudged through an hour and twenty minutes of this book before having to give up. I found the narration so monotonous and uninspiring. Half of what I listened to was the author retelling biblical and mythological stories that were supposedly related to the artist's journey. Not for me at all. I would LOVE to see someone write a book for artists that has no reference to god/the bible/divinity/the universe/spirituality etc. We aren't all into that stuff. :/

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
