Summary

Danielle uses her characteristic playfulness, gorgeous illustrations, and humor to help kids overcome negativity about their artistic endeavors-and to help them redefine what being an artist means. Every page delivers an encouraging tidbit to the kid who thinks artists all live in cities, or that art has to look like something familiar, or that painting and drawing are the only way to make art. In a world that drastically undervalues creative freedom, Krysa's whimsical paintings and collages joyfully proclaim that art is essential and that artists are everywhere. The back of the book includes ideas for art projects-because "who wants less art projects? Nobody!"
