Steal like an artist
The author of the work: Austin Cleon
Recommended age: from 12 years old
How many talents have been ruined because of one painful phrase thrown by someone in the heat of the moment – “it already happened!”. Or “it has already been painted before you!” The thought that everything has already been invented before us, and you cannot create anything new, is destructive – it leads to a creative dead end and cuts off the wings of inspiration.
Austin Cleon clearly explains to all creative people that any work (be it a painting or a novel) arises on the basis of plots (phrases, characters, thoughts thrown out loud) that came from outside. There is nothing original in the world. But this is not a reason to give up your creative realization.
