Sonheim, a painter, illustrator, and workshop instructor, uses skills learned by drawing—e.g., learning to "see" and focus, developing your "hand"—to instill the confidence to get wildly creative in mixed media. In 52 weekly projects, she finds inspiration in famous artists, childhood, and nature. One week focuses on "Your Inner Dr. Seuss," another on drawing 100 experimental portraits. Sonheim hopes to return adults to the creative innocence of childhood. A good choice for artists of any level.
