Becoming an Artist: a memoir of influences and opportunities that determined my art life
​

This book is about charting the many twists and turns in my seven decades that helped guide me into the life of an artist. We all have thousands of moments in our past that encouraged or discouraged our creative life, and I am thinking through my own path  to help others identify what ways have determined their artistic paths. When we got lost, when we thrived, and how we might move forward to bring more creativity into our lives.  The book will contain questions for the reader to help understand what elements help or hurt their ability to integrate creative thinking and practices into their lives. So it's about me and you too.

I am publishing periodic excerpts of the book on my Patreon website. You can join for five dollars a month and follow along as I complete the book by next year.  Other benefits are available too when you sign up for Patreon such as podcasts and videos
