Think about the many arts you've learned since you were born. Is there an art that keeps grabbing your attention, curiosity, and imagination? What is it about that art that makes you pursue it? What is an art worth pursuing? While every art is learnable, not every art is sustainable. This book is an attempt to understand the original meaning of art, to free it from its association with visual expression alone, and to inspire you to find and cultivate an art that enriches you and the world.
