"Steal Like AN Artist" Book Review

When I got the book "Steal Like an Artist", I was super excited. I was so excited to read and even more excited to discover how it would impact the way I do my work.

It was one of those books that were described as being perfect for me, and it fit the bill. It's a book about how to find your path in life, but it's also a book about how to steal from other people to get there. It's funny, and it's serious, and it's inspiring.

The first thing that struck me about this book is that its author makes no bones about what he's doing—he doesn't pretend to be any different than she is. He just wants to help people, and he wants to tell them how they can do the same thing he does—which is stolen like an artist. But stealing is more than just taking something without asking permission; it also means finding inspiration in other people's work and using their ideas to make something new. We all know that there are tons of amazing artists out there who have created masterpieces by stealing from each other or nature (or both), but we don't always think about how much we could learn from copying someone else's creative process instead of trying something new ourselves.

“If you steal from an author, it's plagiarism; If you steal from many, it is research.” —Wilson Mizner

The author does a great job of explaining exactly why "Steal Like an Artist" is the perfect book for the artist or anyone who wants to be more creative. The author, explains how he listens to his inner voice and doesn't let the rules and societal expectations stop him from doing what makes him feel powerful. He doesn't care if other people think his style is weird or different—he just sees it as a way to show that he has freedom of expression and can create whatever he wants, regardless of what other people think.

Austin Kleon gives a very creative way to create some new ideas in this book-

1. Garbage In, Garbage Out.

2. Copy Your Idol.

3. School Yourself - Two more things are added here-

a. Google Everything.

b. Always be reading.

4. Notebook.

Kleon shows us that being an artist doesn't have to mean sitting around all day painting and drawing; you can be an artist by doing things that make you feel free, like writing poetry or making music! The book also gives us tips on how to get started with creativity, such as "never stop sketching," "only write when you're inspired," and "find a place where no one will judge you."

The book, Steal Like an Artist: 10 Things Nobody Told You About Being Creative, by Austin Kleon, is a perfect read for the creative person in your life.

The author's writing style is very engaging, and he makes each of his points clear and easy to understand. He uses examples from his own life and works to illustrate his points.

The book is broken down into 10 chapters: -

Rules to "Steal like an Artist"-

"Be Your First Customer," "Put Your Ideas on Paper," "Learn from Others," "Don't Quit When It Gets Harder," "Sell What You Know," "Use Free Time for Inspiration," "Make Things Up as You Go," "Build a Community Around Your Work," and "Do Something Ridiculous."

Each chapter has its theme, but many sub-themes within each chapter tie together perfectly with the overarching theme of creativity. This book will inspire you to be more creative in your own life—or at least make you think twice about how you approach things when they become difficult or uncomfortable.

"Steal like an artist" by Austin Kleon is a fantastic book about creativity. It's full of ideas and inspiration, but it's also a reminder that all of us are creative, and we should be doing what makes us happy. I love this book because it's so relatable and easy to read—I think everyone should read it!

Thanks for reading!
