Danielle Krysa Books

Loaded with real-world insights into the creative processes of 50 working artists, this chunky block-buster is a thorough resource for a new generation of art school grads and self-taught artists.

This book is duct tape for the mouth of every artist's inner critic. Silencing that stifling voice once and for all, this salve for creatives introduces ten truths they must face in order to defeat self-doubt. Each encouraging chapter deconstructs a pivotal moment on the path to success—fear of the blank page, the dangers of jealousy, sharing work with others—and explains how to navigate roadblock. Packed with helpful anecdotes, thoughts from successful creatives, and practical exercises gleaned from Danielle Krysa's years of working with professional and aspiring artists—plus riotously apt illustrations from art world darling Martha Rich—this book arms readers with the most essential tool for their toolbox: the confidence they need to get down to business and make good work.

Help kids discover and nourish their inner artist with this vividly illustrated, funny, and endlessly encouraging dose of positive reinforcement.

In this lushly illustrated gift book author and artist Danielle Krysa inspires readers to unlock their own creativity through 15 imagination-sparking activities inspired by the work and stories of more than 45 internationally- acclaimed, contemporary female artists.

Based on the beautifully packaged and accessibly feminist A Big Important Art Book (Now with Women), this guided sketchbook pairs a personality-filled title with hands-on projects, clever prompts and engaging profiles to inspire creative women.

This wry and wisdom-filled children's book from the author of How To Spot An Artist helps artists ages five and up discover the joy of artistic expression while silencing self-criticism.
