Double Giveaway!

Because I love to share books that I love, I will be sharing a copy of Austin Kleon's 'Show Your Work!' on March 16.  And...because I love to listen to jazz music while I paint, I have decided to add a bonus by sharing a copy of my friend Tim Tamashiro's latest CD 'Drinky'. 

When I read Austin's previous book, 'Steal Like an Artist', I connected with it immediately.  His chapter titles intrigued me from the moment I picked up the book... 
  1. Steal like an artist.
  2. Don’t wait until you know who you are to get started.
  3. Write the book you want to read.
  4. Use your hands.
  5. Side projects and hobbies are important.
  6. The secret: do good work and share it with people.
  7. Geography is no longer our master.
  8. Be nice. (The world is a small town.)
  9. Be boring. (It’s the only way to get work done.)
  10. Creativity is subtraction.
Now with 'Show Your Work' with the following chapter titles, You Don’t Have to Be a Genius; Share Something Small Every Day; and Stick Around, I just knew it would be just a great.

And because music is a huge part of my time in my studio while I create, I also wanted to include a copy of my friend Tim's CD (read more about it here).  You might be familiar with Tim's CBC Radio program 'Tonic' (I love everything CBC), and as he says, he is a passionate supporter of the world's greatest jazz and Canadian jazz from coast to coast. 

If you would like a chance to win both, please leave a comment here, on facebook, or email.  I'll be making the draw on March 16.  Good luck!
