The Unstoppable Artist by Barbara L. McCulloch is a detailed guide that will help readers find purpose, meaning and creativity in their art. The author discusses how many artists get stuck creating “art” for money. Being an experienced successful artist, she explains how to make art speak to your soul while still making money. She puts her readers through a series of exercises that will help them discover their own signature style using an artist medium they are most comfortable working with. By creating a unique style, it will speak to an audience that is willing to buy their pieces and add meaning to their life.

The author does a great job of assigning projects that give artists a way to free themselves of the struggles of making art and just focus on the joy of creating pieces that speak to one’s soul. She does this through the use of projects which teach practical techniques on how to work with various mediums as well as discusses the proper tools to have to create the best art one can, therefore creating art that appeals to an audience. 

This is a fantastic resource for artists. I would’ve liked a little more elaboration on how to sell my art as what was given was useful and I thought a bit more information would help me understand better. I enjoyed the various projects that it offered because I felt like every bit of it was designed to inspire creativity. I certainly walked away from this book feeling like I was a better artist.

The author’s passion for art shines throughout the book, which I expected, but I didn’t expect to also feel how passionate the author was about educating others, which was key to me fully embracing the lessons. The Unstoppable Artist is a critical resource for budding artists, or anyone looking to develop their skills and take them to the next level.
