About the Book (Excerpts & Info)

There is an artist inside each of us, just waiting to be recognized. Douglas Gilbert's very human and inclusive approach to the timeless phenomenon of art-making applies to everyone!"With Doug's help I have gained the confidence that I in fact can reach myself through this natural language. It has allowed me to be sensitive and feeling, to experience that it's okay to be myself. My batteries get recharged. I have more confidence and more energy for work in general." - Michael Feldman, Creative Director"With Doug's supportive and nurturing presence I have been able to go deeper into myself through my imagery than I ever thought possible. This has led to very real, tangible healing, and I will always be grateful for having been his student." - George Collins, Student "As participants in Doug's workshops we create a bond of kinship and community because what we reveal to one another is strong and juicy and true." - Carla Steinberg, Ph.D, Writer/Teacher "The images we create speak with uncompromising clarity. They reveal the core issues and tasks at the heart of our psychological and spiritual development. Doug's understanding of this is profound." - Ben Kanne, MFCC
