ORGANIZING FOR CREATIVE PEOPLE by Sheila Chandra
by: Sheila Chandra
Only £10.99
This book does exactly what it says on the cover: It patiently explains to people who do creative work for a living how to run their lives and businesses so that their daily routine stays calm and effective and that their job makes money for them. Sheila Chandra was the singer for the band Monsoon, who had a hit in 1982 with “Ever So Lonely”, and in recent years she actually managed her own career herself so she knows what she is talking about. Sometimes you need someone else to tell you the obvious, and Sheila does so in a clear and direct way. Includes a foreword by street artist STIK, someone who was homeless but who Sheila guided towards making a success of his art and his life.

ABSTRACT NATURE by Waltraud Nawratil
£12.99
Imagine learning a way of communicating how you feel about the world around you. In this new book, Waltraud guides us through a range of techniques and exercises that combine both colour and texture. The author encourages you to experiment with different surfaces, tools and accessories that are reassuringly messy. She frees you from looking at the surface of things and encourages you to establish a connection from your heart to the essence of your subject. This fully illustrated book can inspire us all to begin perceiving our world with all our faculties, not just our eyes, whether or not we intend to paint. From Search Press, the publishers of our previous highly successful Paint Yourself Calm.

ALPHABET OF THE HUMAN HEART Matthew Johnson
Back soon! - £10.79 £12.99
'A handbook for the happy, and a bible for the broken-hearted', The Alphabet of the Human Heart is an enchanting and enriching journey through the upside and the downside of what it means to be human - our hopes and our fears, our strength and our weakness, our highs and our lows. Quite literally 'a book of two halves', firstly there is an upside A-Z, full of the happy and hopeful aspects of our lives, such as A is for Adventure - the opposite of television, through G is for Gratitude, S is for Smile to Zen is the Place to Be. Flip the book over, and the other downside half examines the negative parts of our lives and how we can overcome them to lead more positive and fulfilling lives. With affirmations, humorous illustrations throughout, and a definite sense of glee, Matthew Johnstone and James Kerr's little book of wisdom is also the perfect gift to help cheer up a friend or loved one.
