"Steal Like an Artist" is the title of a book by Austin Kleon.  It has some useful tips on becoming a successful artist, which is why I thought I would post it here.  It is not a steampunk book, but about creativity in general.  It is a quick read and might be helpful to anyone looking to expand their artistic horizons.  http://www.austinkleon.com/steal/
There is a pretty good preview of the book at the above link.  I would be interested in hearing what others think.  Thanks

And of course Stealing Like an Artist is what the Tactile section of Brass Goggles is all about.  We post our work so that others can be inspired as we are inspired by others.

Looks interesting.

Thanks for sharing - I will now steal your idea and read the sample.  Smiley

I found this and just had a flip through. From that alone I now own it.
These snippets hit me in the face pretty hard:
Attention: Do not leave your longings unattended.
Geography is no longer our master
. (I get pretty jealous of how it easy it seems for some of you to find buyers compared to living in the dark corners of the Earth)

Chapter 6 - The Secret: Do Good Work and Share it with People

If that isn't Tactile and BG in general, than I don't know what is.
