New to me and to Life Book? What is ‘all the fuss’ about Life Book and The Book? :) Lemme tell you all about it!

I am Tam and Life Book is my most ambitious, most beautiful, most uplifting, life enriching offer to the world to date! Life Book is a year long mixed media art course that has been running for 6 years and includes a host of fantastic guest teachers and me, Tam who offer art lessons and projects, personal development exercises, creative prompts and much more for a whole year. (You can find out more about the online course here: Life Book 2018).

Anyhoo, Quarry Publishing House heard about Life Book, thought the project sounded awesome and asked me to write a book about it! I too think Life Book is pretty awesome, so I said HOLY MOLY YES OF COURSE! :)

Now that the book is about to be published (January 2018), I am running a give away and a blog hop with 14 other AWESOME teachers who have all taught on Life Book before! Each teacher can give away one copy for FREE!! Yayyyy!!!! (If you scroll down you can find their site urls, be sure to follow them on the blog hop so you can find out more about them and also so you can enter their give-aways!).

Here is more information about the book!

Celebrate and honor your creative potential with Create Your Life Book!

Based on much-loved mixed-media artist Tamara Laporte’s popular, multi-year series of online classes, Create Your Life Book offers mixed-media drawing and painting projects that can raise your awareness of and help you work through personal challenges and other obstacles to creating art and achieving self-fulfillment.

Watch this video to learn more about the book:

Each themed chapter presents 4 or 5 two-part projects: The first part of each project explores a common issue that hampers creativity and/or positive self-worth, and includes a worksheet or list of questions to be answered; the second part is a step-by-step mixed-media art project that provides a way for artists at all skill levels to contemplate and work through that issue. Also included are projects contributed by some of Tamara’s Life Book guest teachers–Roxanne Coble, Andrea Gomoll, Alena Hennessy, Mystele Kirkeeng, Ivy Newport, and Effy Wild–who are noted mixed-media artists in their own right. Along the way, Tamara shares inspirational photos and uplifting and encouraging affirmations. The final chapter presents a simple binding method for creating a keepsake book of your Life Book projects.
