a wonderful and insightful bookJune 4, 2007 rit(england) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book is a joy to read. The author uses both drawing and prose to take you through an emotional journey with him that also nurtures and encourages your own creativity.
Well worth a read.
Inspiring.
Drawn from experienceNovember 30, 2003 Richard Bell(Yorkshire) 28 out of 29 found this review helpful
This book's a delight and it's had me feeling fresh enthusiasm to go out with my sketchbook to draw the kind of everyday things that come to life in Danny Gregory's New York diary. His wryly philosophical approach brings out the meaning in such overlooked subjects as kitchen cupboards, bars and diners, leaves, commuters and, one of my favourite pages, 'the Booths of New York and the people who work in them.' His drawings started as a reaction to a near-tragic life-changing event and I feel that Gregory's put over his experience with such compelling and disarming honesty that this is one of those books that in some way changes your life when you've read it. I certainly felt that it was meant to drop into my hands at the time it did.
But even if it doesn't change your life you'll never look at a booth and the person who works in it quite the same way again!
