"There are more than 50 creative prompts for the artist (or artist at heart) to explore. Take the title of this book as affirmation, and get started." --Fast Company

More than 50 assignments, ideas, and prompts to expand your world and help you make outstanding new things to put into it

Curator Sarah Urist Green left her office in the basement of an art museum to travel and visit a diverse range of artists, asking them to share prompts that relate to their own ways of working. The result is You Are an Artist, a journey of creation through which you'll invent imaginary friends, sort books, declare a cause, construct a landscape, find your band, and become someone else (or at least try). Your challenge is to filter these assignments through the lens of your own experience and make art that reflects the world as you see it.

You don't have to know how to draw well, stretch a canvas, or mix a paint color that perfectly matches that of a mountain stream. This book is for anyone who wants to make art, regardless of experience level. The only materials you'll need are what you already have on hand or can source for free. Full of insights, techniques, and inspiration from art history, this book opens up the processes and practices of artists and proves that you, too, have what it takes to call yourself one.

You Are an Artist brings together more than 50 assignments gathered from some of the most innovative creators working today, including Sonya Clark, Michelle Grabner, The Guerrilla Girls, Fritz Haeg, Pablo Helguera, Nina Katchadourian, Toyin Ojih Odutola, J. Morgan Puett, Dread Scott, Alec Soth, Gillian Wearing, and many others.

Vibrant results
Number of Items: 11
These mouse pads give vibrant results for your sublimation, I would recommend that you take a lighter and gently go around the edges to keep them from fraying over time

Almost great
Number of Items: 11
All pads are individually package with resealable plastic pouches which is nice when reselling. Sturdy backer material and it does not slide easily. These mousepads have a subtle gray or even bluish-gray tint that will slightly distort the color of any image pressed directly on them. The result is that no design containing white will look quite right and other colors may look a little faded or a bit off-color. Overall good buy, but these have some limitations when using sublimation ink and not HTV products. Will likely buy again as end result was a happy customer after some design elements were modified.
