While every life is a roller coaster ride of ups and downs, artist Sharon Mirtaheri found a way to salvage her own self-worth through the layers of making art. Her story encourages us to rise above circumstances that would just as easily keep us small; to turn to the unconditional love of nature; to give of our own gifts to those less fortunate and to come to understand no one can believe in ourselves for us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSharon takes us through her discovery of encaustic collage and shares stories of the life that inspired the art; how she uses her personal metaphoric library of symbols-birds, trees, plants-to heal deep wounds; questions based on principles of design that every artist can ask him- or herself about any composition, as well as an in-depth tour of her own encaustic-painting process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sharon Mirtaheri\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1737696304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781737696308\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e R.
