Curator Sarah Urist Green left her office in the basement of an art museum to travel and visit a diverse range of artists, asking them to share prompts that relate to their own ways of working. The result is You Are an Artist, a journey of creation through which you'll invent imaginary friends, sort books, declare a cause, construct a landscape, find your band, and become someone else (or at least try). Your challenge is to filter these assignments through the lens of your own experience and make art that reflects the world as you see it.

Art & Fear explores the way art gets made, the reasons it often doesn't get made, and the nature of the difficulties that cause so many artists to give up along the way. This is a book about what it feels like to sit in your studio or classroom, at your wheel or keyboard, easel or camera, trying to do the work you need to do. It is about committing your future to your own hands, placing free will above predestination, choice above chance. It is about finding your own work.

The content is great but the narration is ANNOYING
The content in this book is fantastic. She provides a lot of useful details about starting an art commission business. However, the narrator sounds like the voice on the elevator at the Ministry of Magic in the Harry Potter movies. Very sing-songy and only useful if what you want is to be lulled into a hypnotic state or fall asleep. Good narrators tell us the STORY in a way that engages us. This narrator reads this book as if she were making a public service announcement...for the duration of the entire book!
I do not recommend narration by Nikki Delgado.

I have had the pleasure of following along with Sema’s work for over a year now and her book is just another example of how amazing the journey of following your art dreams can be. This book really helped kick me into gear in terms of getting the business side of my art organized and tackling those hard to do tasks I had been avoiding, or didn’t even know I needed to be doing. Highly recommend!

Great content, shame about the delivery
There is some really useful information shared by the author in this audible but unfortunately I found myself drifting in and out of consciousness due to the robotic voice of the narrator. 🤖 Will need to listen again or get a paper copy to fully soak in the details.

Amazing book! Highly Recommend
’Sema Martin now has an audio book version of her ‘Art is my Career: How to start an art business’ narrated by Nikki Delgado and I have had the pleasure of listening to it whilst working on a Christmas portrait over the past week. Nikki Delgado does an amazing job as the narrator and I felt very motivated whilst listening to this book. When I first read Sema’s book last year, I was so pleased I did as she had shared SO much useful information! I wrote a review about Sema’s book which you can find on my website www.shanddonblundenart.co.uk
Now, I love that I can listen to it whilst drawing a portrait or pottering around the house! I really enjoy having the option of listening to the book as I don’t always feel like sitting reading so to have someone to read it for me is amazing! And means I have more time to be creative and enjoy the book at the same time! I often find myself jotting things down when I hear something that sparks an idea! It’s a great wait to generate new ideas as the narrator talks through Semas’ advice. The book is beautifully read and Audible saves where your up to when you’ve finished listening so when you next come to listen it picks up where you left off! I would highly recommend signing up to Audible and purchasing the Audio book! 😃 Sema is doing a wonderful job helping us artists work towards our dreams, cannot thank her enough!!
