Description
by Sean Starr (Author), Jennifer Moore Starr (Photographer)
First published in 2008, this revised edition of The Artist's Tao is a collection of 44 principles that encourages introspection and reflection for artists. The Artist's Tao is drawn from hundreds of conversations and correspondences between Sean Starr and other artists around the world dealing with subjects such as fighting discouragement, maintaining balance, and measuring success as an artist.
When I began writing the initial draft of "The Artist's Tao" in 2006, I had no idea that this little book would traverse the globe, sparking inspiration among so many other artists. Now, in 2024, I am encouraged to see how many of these thoughts not only have endured but have evolved into pivotal principles shaping my decisions as my career progressed. Like most artists, I have dedicated my life to the pursuit of art, and engaging in discussions with fellow artists. This book is a culmination of nearly four decades immersed in that creative process. I have made some alterations to the wording, primarily by simplifying and distilling the essence of each concept. However, the original intent remains intact, now presented in a more digestible and memorable form. Additionally, this edition features a series of photos by Jennifer Moore Starr capturing the interior of our studio in Calvert, Texas, showcasing the materials employed in my artwork and a collection of items that serve as sources of inspiration. We trust that you will enjoy this new edition and discover inspiration and encouragement within these ideas. The path of an artist has never been an easy one, yet it is a journey I have never regretted. May this book serve as a companion to aid you along your own artistic journey.
