Creative roadblocks are a fact of life for every artist, and every artist needs tools to help them clear the path. Enter The Artist's Deck, created by arts counselor and author Beth Pickens, to help you return to your art, no matter what obstacles you encounter.
In this handy, interactive card deck, Pickens identifies common traps, feelings, myths, and blocks that artists encounter and offers insight into working through each one. Each card describes an obstacle and poses reflection questions and exercises to transform that obstacle into a source of inspiration and generative energy. Whether you seek guidance on a specific topic or use the deck as an oracle tool to inspire growth, The Artist's Deck will support you as you work through the creative challenges that come your way.
