false 40168 1 When Danny Gregory's life was turned upside down by tragedy, he learned to cope by teaching himself to draw. The result was a complete transformation of his life, his priorities, his career, and the way he saw the world. In handwritten chapters full of his lush watercolor illustrations, Danny now offers readers a program for reconnecting to their own creative energies, using drawing as an example. He gently instructs us in the art of allowing ourselves to fail, giving up the expectation of perfection and opening our eyes to the beauty around us. The result is the permission to express ourselves fully and take part in the creative process without fear. Artist or not, readers of all stripes will find inspiration in this unique and beautiful book. 39853 1 1 2006 The Creative License: Giving Yourself Permission to be the Artist You Truly Are total:186|5:91|4:66|3:24|2:2|1:3| 186 798 359 40 5 0 false false Sun Apr 19 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 15 22:53:06 -0700 2009 Sun Apr 19 21:58:04 -0700 2009
