As enjoyable as the book, itself, is the lilting Scottish accent of author/artist Johanna Basford as she chats with Steve Tarter about "30 Days of Creativity."
Basford, an accomplished player in the adult coloring book world, has numerous titles to her credit but "30 Days" is an effort to let someone who may never have picked up a crayon to join in.
She suggests spending just 10 minutes a day--for 30 days--to follow along with her book to see what you can do.
"Once you start and get going, you'll be amazed at how much skill you have," she said.
Basford is a cheerleader for the inner artist in all of us. "Comparison is the thief of job. Don't doubt yourself," she urges.
"If you're worried about showing your work to people, you're showing it to the wrong people," said Basford.
"Forget about perfection. Just aim for progress," she said.
