Format:Paperback
This book is a informally written and repetitive at times. It is encouraging with respect the the fact the author believes most people have artistic ability, because the author believes the point of making art is for ones own development, not for someone else to judge. That art is cathartic, energetic or what ever else the individual wishes it to be. I liked this book and agree with the author. Teachers could learn a lot from this book in respect to children's ability. An open mind is useful, I use it as a metaphor for life. We can achieve whatever we want to, I wish they taught this attitude in schools.

Point Zero changed my life
2 April 2001
Format:Paperback
I love this book!!! It seemed exactly what was needed to help me open up myself and create. I've always wanted to paint or simply put color on paper but something always stopped me. This book carefully outlined and explained the demons that were in my way, and after some practice, I could find myself safely stepping into the unknown and expressing myself. "Point Zero" also made me feel safer to understand myself and face some challenging issues inside. Mostly, this book - with its interesting writing and short chapters that held my attention - gave me permission to go to places I have not before. I am very grateful to Michelle Cassou for sharing her teaching and experience with me.

Point Zero:Creativity without Limits
9 May 2001
Format:Paperback
Point Zero is a wonderfully clear and insightful explanation of the creative process and how to tap into it. Creative blocks are defined and undone with a simple questioning process which applieas to the joy of painting and living. Cassou's stories from her own experiences of paintting for process for hours on end and her spiritual unfoldment from that process are inspiring. Highly recommended for artist and non-artist alke, those who are seeking an opening in their creative process.

Creativity Without Limits
1 April 2001
Format:Paperback
Impassioned by her own life-long painting journey, Michele Cassou invites us to use our creativity to connect with our deepest selves. In her most recent book, Point Zero: Creativity Without Limits, she implores, inspires, provokes, and cajoles us to look directly at our creative blocks and to use the blocks themselves as catalysts to break their hold on us. As always, Cassou turns away from "end product", focusing instead on the mysterious act of creating itself. "In creativity, only the process matters - not as a trophy to add to your mantelpiece, but as an exercise of strength and clarity, as an opening to insights and revelations." The charming drawings, diverse quotations, and glorious color pages of paintings add dimension to her written voice. Ultimately, it is Cassou's enthusiasm and passion that delight me again and again. Dynamic reading for anyone who feels the call to create! (Workshops with Michele offer a direct, fascinating experience of her written words -- contact pointzeropainting.com.)
