 I know that beginning a career as a visual artist can be difficult as it isn't a typical career choice. An artist's life is a vulnerable one, filled with so many variables. I believe that there is success in collaboration and hope that in sharing some of the wisdom that has been shared by many others along with the experience I have gained on my creative journey I can help someone else on theirs.
So, after a few more edits I had ordered a second copy and now want to give this one to someone who would like a copy, too. You can take a peek into the book online here. And to enter the draw, just leave your name here, on facebook, twitter or send me an email (links upper right). I'll select a winner on July 15. Good luck! 7/10/2015 01:57:44 am

I was a lucky recipient of this wonderful book and have enjoyed the advice, the amazing artwork and the thoughtfulness that went into making it.

Hi Veronica, 7/11/2015 02:17:55 am
I've corrected a few typos, added a few more photos, and included a little info on experimentation, photographing artwork, writing an artist's statement, mentors, and a reading list. I'll email you Koos.

I love your work Veronica. I would love a copy of your wonderful book! I just discovered your blog through Instagram. 7/10/2015 09:43:28 am
How lovely of you to gift one of your books. I'm teaching a group of 19 budding Artists and am leading them to every resource I can to help their growth. Will advise them about your book. Kind Regards Judith from Australia 7/14/2015 09:40:17 am
Hi Judith from Australia! I admire art teachers and though I do it so infrequently myself I understand the importance and huge value teachers have...and how difficult it can be. Hats off to you. 7/10/2015 09:54:58 am
Veronica, you know that I love your paintings...your approach, story, colours and textures. 7/14/2015 09:40:57 am
You know I feel the same about your work and process Flora :)

Wow, I am so proud of you! I would love to have this book! 7/14/2015 09:42:04 am
I think I've always been able to choose the greatest friends! 7/14/2015 09:43:26 am
I think I'm going to have to do this again sometime Renata. 7/12/2015 01:07:09 am
Hello Veronica, long ago we spoke about mentoring, I was super excited. Then you moved, disappeared from my line of sight. Not having a contact for you I sadly allowed myself to be pushed by the same program which used you as a guiding example, I followed their advice which also sunk me. I wish I had known the truth. 7/14/2015 09:45:00 am
Hi Teresa...I've thought of you several times through these years. I think a huge part of this creative life is perseverance...and remembering to enjoy the process, to work for the sake of the work.
