"A joy to read. In a style both conversational and precise, London
questions the conventional attitudes that form a barrier to keep art outside
most people's lives. London shows us that making images is as natural as
speech, as dreams."—Yoga
Journal
"Passionate
and insightful . . . A must-read for all artists, art students, and art
teachers. But anyone who wants to explore their own inner dimensions of
creativity can learn and profit from it."—Intuition
"Peter
London is grounded in his approach to the visual arts and he communicates it

"I
am impressed—no, I am thrilled—by the courage and ripeness of his guidance
toward creativity, how it can work, how it can be helped and hindered, how it
can change everything."—M.C. Richards, author of

"His
eloquent, at times poetic ruminations return the reader to some earlier state
of grace that may have been damaged or neglected in the hurly-burly of
teaching. London not only invites the reader on this journey to some unexplored
recesses of the mind, but also provides very specific tasks to ease the passage
of transition. Philosopher and artist though he may be, London's commitment as
a teacher shines on every page."—Al Hurwitz, author of
