Produktbeschreibung

"[Snider has] created something unique: a synthesis of comics, philosophy, and poetry: a thoughtful new way of packaging eternal ideas in cartoon boxes." -The Los Angeles Review of Books What does an idea look like? And where do they come from? Grant Snider's illustrations will motivate you to explore these questions, inspire you to come up with your own answers and, like all Gordian knots, prompt even more questions. Whether you are a professional artist or designer, a student pursuing a creative career, a person of faith, someone who likes walks on the beach, or a dreamer who sits on the front porch contemplating life, this collection of one- and two-page comics will provide insight into the joys and frustrations of creativity, inspiration, and process-no matter your age or creative background. "A creative kaleidoscope of humor, insight, and truth. Aninventive window into the creative experience filled withhope and encouragement for daydreamers and doodlers, sketchers and scribblers, inventors, explorers, and spinners of yarns." -Clare Vanderpool, New York Times-bestselling, Newbery Medal-winning author "Grant Snider's work delivers introspection, humor, and inspiration in visually stunning drawings. They are a colorful look into the creative process-from the moments of quiet contemplation to the days of frenzied desperation." -Susan Cain, #1 New York Times-bestselling author of Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking "A friendly, encouraging depiction of the creative process, with its highs and lows, from a comics creator." -The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel
