The best thing a creative person can have is a crew of friends, allies,
and mentors to support them. Packed with inspiration and ideas from
author-illustrator Andrea Pippins, this is a one-of-a-kind handbook for
doers and makers looking to expand and nourish their creative community.
Drawing on her own network of talented artists, designers, and friends,
Pippins offers tips on how to: reach out to your heroes; use your art or
work to empower your community; learn about a new culture and shake up
your perspective; take a class, join a team, plan brunch--have fun! And
she delivers her advice in style. Colorful pages feature patterns,
portraits, and hand-lettered quotes alongside tips for fostering genuine
connections and supportive relationships.
