Damsel, Hero, Artist, Judge: Meditations on Archetypes and Creativity

By Jane Dunnewold

An entertaining and thoughtful guide to creativity as it can be interpreted through the lens of archetypes - symbolic patterns of human behavior. Thirty-six short essays with prompt questions, lavishly illustrated with art work inspired by archetypes by artists Denise Osso and Zoie Holzknecht. A judge from Writer's Digest observed: "The meditations are written with a smooth, pleasant voice (as if they had accompanying music inspiring further relaxation.)" and continued: "Fabulous questions! 'Do you use humor in a creative way?' was just one of the thought-provoking questions that added a sparkling degree of self-assessment and conversational topics to this book." If you have ever wondered whether archetypes are at work in your creative life, you can bet they are. These essays are the light that will shine on your Artist, Saboteur, Rescuer - and the pantheon of others just waiting to join you from the wings. Embrace them and watch your art work deepen and expand in the most joyful of ways.
