I think this book is perfect to address creative ruts, when we feel like we’ve explored all the usual avenues of inspiration. I love that it’s interactive with a mix-and-match prompt system.

It provides a breath of fresh air and aligns with how I love to generate random drawing prompts. I love discovering a new combination of prompts, pushing me out of my comfort zone and into creative territories I hadn't dared to venture before.

It's not just a book; it's a companion for those moments when the blank page seems daunting.

This book is so much fun!

I love that at any moment, you can pick it up and flip through it to mix and match ideas so that you always have a reason and content for creating. Choose a color combination, a subject, and a medium at random, and off you go.
