Art Is a Way of Knowing

I would recommend it for an art therapy class or if you're definitely interested in techniques related to art therapy, but maybe not so much if you just want something to casually pick up and read. There are a lot of personal references the author makes so it's not so much of a textbook, but she also goes into detail about different ideas for art-making, which I didn't particularly like. She also goes into a lot of detail about her own work career which put me off. However, it did lead me to realize how much I need to get my priorities together and figure out exactly what I'm striving to do career-wise!

This book is on my top shelf, where i keep big-idea books that have actually changed the course of my growth. I recommend it for anyone like me, who doesn't have artistic skills, but is trying to find a way to communicate with their subconscious self.
