Art Before Breakfast: A Zillion Ways to be More Creative No Matter How Busy You Are
Creativity is increasingly important for us to succeed and get the most out of life. This books hows you how to develop a creative habit, despite the many demands on your time.
For aspiring artists who want to draw and paint but just can’t seem to find time in the day, I give you 5– to 10–minute exercises for every skill level that fit into any schedule—whether on a plane, in a meeting, or at the breakfast table—along with practical instruction on techniques and materials, plus strategies for making work that’s exciting, unintimidating, and fulfilling.
Filled with encouraging words and motivating illustrations, Art Before Breakfast teaches readers how to develop a creative habit and lead a richer life through making art.

Love this wonderful down to earth book. You have broken down drawing instruction with simple to follow directions. Danny is like a friend not only giving permission but reassuring us each step of the way. He has made art a way of connecting us to ourselves and the earth. Would recommend this to anyone. Thanks so much for being able to put all this into words.
