Steal Like An Artist
Austin Kleon, 2012
This isn't about plagiarism; it's about embracing influence, remixing ideas, and finding your own unique voice.
Kleon argues that all creative work builds upon what came before, and that the key to originality is to steal like an artist – collecting inspiration from multiple sources, combining them in new ways, and adding your own perspective.
This short, punchy, and visually engaging book is packed with practical tips and exercises to help you unlock your creativity.
It's a manifesto for the digital age, encouraging readers to embrace collaboration, share their work, and find their tribe.
