What is the one book that influenced you and how

Steal like an artist is the book that got me inspired most, to change a bit in my life . The central message of this book as All of us, when we would first starting out with a new creative idea ,we felt  like whatever could create that never compare well to what masters of the art form have displayed. But you don’t need to be a genius, you just need to be yourself.

Bond Welcomes "Steal Like an Artist" Author Austin Kleon | BackerKitSteal Like An Artist - a book by Austin Kleon

                 Austin Kleon teaches every aspiring creator on how to gain inspiration by stealing ideas or copying from artists they admire to eventually find their own voice and success in their creative pursuits .While it’s a very famous line, I doubt it’s being used in the right context a lot. Picasso didn’t literally steal other painters’ work. He merely imitated his favorite artists a lot. So when your friends tells you this quote the next time you point out she just plain copied someone’s homework, you can tell them that’s not what Picasso meant..
I can explain it clearly by taking a example in my own life, as am very passionate about sketching. I took a reference pic of an actress that I admire more and I thought of sketching a portrait of her which ended up with some other face shape Which didn't ended up exactly, but i modified and recreated it in my own perspective and coloured it in a such  way that myheart wants to create. Through this a new painting has been reincarnated. So in the same way we can create miracles in our lives too by being our own selfs.

Conclusion:
Here are my some  lessons from the novel i got inspired
Where you fail to imitate your favorite artists is where you’ll find you own style.
If you’re an artist, some procrastination is productive.
Enjoy the anonymity of being a beginner before the fame hits.
This one encourages you to not worry about being original and focus on getting started.
