Note: This is a book summary, not the original book.

About

You don't need to be a genius, you just need to be yourself. That's the message from Austin Kleon, a young author and artist who knows that creativity is everywhere, and creativity is for everyone. A manifesto for the digital age, Steal Like an Artist is a guide whose positive message, exercises, and examples put listeners directly in touch with their artistic side.

When Austin was asked to address college students in upstate New York, he shaped his speech around the 10 things he wished someone had told him when he was starting out. The talk went viral, and its author dug deeper into his own ideas to create Steal Like an Artist. The result is inspiring, hip, original, practical, and entertaining. And it's filled with new truths about creativity - that nothing is original. So embrace influence, collect ideas, and remix and re-imagine to discover your own path.
