Art Work - On The Creative Life

Art Work, by photographer and writer Sally Mann, offers a mix of wild and illuminating stories, practical (and some impractical) advice, and life lessons.

Illustrated throughout with photographs, journal entries, and letters that bring immediacy and poignancy to the narrative, Art Work is full of thought-provoking insights about the hazards of early promise; the unpredictable role of luck; the value of work, work, work, and more hard work; the challenges of rejection and distraction; the importance of risk-taking; and the rewards of knowing why and when you say yes.
