The creative act : a way of being / by Rubin, Rick,author.; Strauss, Neil,author.;
"From the legendary music producer, a savant at helping people connect with the wellsprings of their creativity, comes a beautifully crafted book, many years in the making, that offers that same deep wisdom to all of us. "I set out to write a book about what to do to make a great work of art. Instead, it revealed itself to be a book on how to be."--Rick Rubin Many famed music producers, however brilliant, become known for a particular sound which has its day and then ages out. Rick Rubin, on the other hand, is most famous for something else: for creating a strong safe space where artists of wildly different genres and traditions can home in on who they really are and what they really offer. To surprise themselves, and thus the world. Rubin's true art is for helping people get out of their own way and commune with the powerful creative signal that is their birthright. Over the years, Rubin has thought deeply about where creativity comes from and where it doesn't, about what it takes to strike a deep nerve within ourselves. Perhaps above all, he has learned that being an artist isn't about your specific output, it's a relationship to the world. Creativity has a space in everyone's life, and everyone has the opportunity to make that space stronger. Indeed, it may be our most important responsibility. More than five years in the making, The Creative Act is a series of meditations that illuminate the path of the artist as a road we all can follow. It is a beautifully generous offering of the wisdom gleaned from a lifetime's work spent in the service of exhilaration and transcendence, distilled into a timeless classic that puts those feelings within closer reach for all of us"--

Includes bibliographical references (page 77) and index.Inspired by the decorative arts, temple carvings and textiles of China, Japan, India and Tibet--Creative Beaded Jewelry celebrates the art of the East with stunning beaded jewelry in various shapes, sizes and materials. The designs in this book draw their inspiration from many different sources ranging from Japanese kimono fabrics to carved Chinese wall panels and lacquerwares to old Tibetan coins--all part of the ancient artistic heritage of Eastern cultures. Detailed instructions for 33 beautiful jewelry pieces are given here, including bracelets, necklaces, earrings and rings that you'll be proud to wear or to give to friends and loved ones as a treasured gift. Each chapter introduces a simple technique of stringing beads using inexpensive and easy-to-find materials: chain, beading wire, memory wire, stretch cord and cotton cord. The author then shows you how to create gorgeous jewelry pieces with that stringing technique using different kinds of Asian beads--from simple ceramic ones to semiprecious, lampwork glass and metal beads. Colorful bracelets embellished with Chinese floral and butterfly motifs, a gold-and-pearl lariat inspired by the fringe of an Indian carpet, and a stunning Shamballa bracelet are just a few of the artful pieces you will learn to make. The combinations are endless and this book has literally something for everyone--from novices to experienced beaders. Many of the projects can be completed in just a few minutes, and all of them are fun and inexpensive to create--but, you will never know that by looking at the fabulous results!
