BOOK 191: CREATIVE CONFIDENCE: UNLEASHING THE CREATIVE POTENTIAL WITHIN US ALL: DAVID KELLEY& TOM KELLEY

BOOK 191: CREATIVE CONFIDENCE: UNLEASHING THE CREATIVE POTENTIAL WITHIN US ALL: DAVID KELLEY& TOM KELLEY

IDEO founder and Stanford d.school creator David Kelley and his brother Tom Kelley, IDEO partner and the author of the bestselling The Art of Innovation, have written a powerful and compelling book on unleashing the creativity that lies within each and every one of us.

Too often, companies and individuals assume that creativity and innovation are the domain of the “creative types.” But two of the leading experts in innovation, design, and creativity on the planet show us that each and every one of us is creative. In an incredibly entertaining and inspiring narrative that draws on countless stories from their work at IDEO and with many of the world’s top companies, David and Tom Kelley identify the principles and strategies that will allow us to tap into our creative potential in our work lives, and in our personal lives, and allow us to innovate in terms of how we approach and solve problems. It is a book that will help each of us be more productive and successful in our lives and in our careers.

FILM 1406: THE WOLFPACK

Locked away from society in an apartment on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, the Angulo brothers learn about the outside world through the films that they watch. Nicknamed, 'The Wolfpack,' the brothers spend their childhood reenacting their favorite films using elaborate homemade props and costumes. Their world is shaken up when one of the brothers escapes and everything changes.

I woke up quite early today, which is unusual for me on a Sunday.  I had an urge to paint.  Unfortunately I couldn’t find any white spirit so I had to wait until everyone got up to paint using oils.  I continued drawing my quotes and couldn’t wait to get started on my paint.  I wanted to try some abstract pieces, which I’ve not really done before, I’m not sure about them but I did enjoy making them.  (While watching some old episodes of Forensic Files (don’t judge me.) I thought while I was all messy and covered in paint I might as well do some marbling. I used one of my canvases and it came out better than expected.  I need new marble ink – if anyone can recommend anywhere I can get some I would really appreciate it.  I would really like some gold or silver!
