The Applied Cartooning Lab is pleased to announce its newest graphic guide, Art & Courage: A Guide to Sustaining a Creative Path. The comic book is based on Art & Fear, Observations On the Perils (and Rewards) of Artmaking by David Bayles and Ted Orland. Since its release in 1993, that book has become an underground classic helping artists across various disciplines persevere through uncertainty and self-doubt.
With David and Ted’s blessing, the Applied Cartooning Lab has produced the Art & Courage graphic guide. The comic book was created by CCS alum Emil WIlson ’21 and ACL director James Sturm. Like the original, Art & Courage offers comforting practical advice and philosophical perspectives drawn from the lived experiences of artists and teachers. As David and Ted write, “the difficulties artmakers face are not remote or heroic, but universal and familiar.”
Hard copies of the comic are available in finer comic book shops across North America beginning mid October 2024.
