Synopsis
Hilarious childhood biographies and full-color illustrations reveal how Leonardo da Vinci, Beatrix Potter, Keith Haring, and other great artists in history coped with regular-kid problems. Every great artist started out as a kid. Forget the awards, the sold-out museum exhibitions, and the timeless masterpieces. When the world's most celebrated artists were growing up, they had regular-kid problems just like you. Jackson Pollock' s family moved constantly--he lived in eight different cities before he was sixteen years old. Georgia O'Keeffe lived in the shadow of her "perfect" older brother Francis. And Jean-Michel Basquiat triumphed over poverty to become one of the world's most influential artists. Kid Artists tells their stories and more with full-color cartoon illustrations on nearly every page. Other subjects include Claude Monet , Jacob Lawrence , Leonardo da Vinci , Vincent van Gogh , Pablo Picasso , Frida Kahlo , Beatrix Potter , Yoko Ono , Dr. Seuss , Emily Carr , Keith Haring , Charles Schulz , and Louise Nevelson ., Hilarious childhood biographies and full-color illustrations reveal how Leonardo da Vinci, Beatrix Potter, Keith Haring, and other great artists in history coped with regular-kid problems.

- d***t (890)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI've bought from seller previously. I had a problem with my address selected & had to cancel this buy. Seller was generous to cooperate. Problem is when sellers ship using USPS but block sales due to P.O. Box #'s. Our USPS refuses for 50+ years to deliver to 4 rural homes here. This causes grief when sellers say sorry & claim they have dodgy buyers using PO Boxes. Will if you pay by CC or Paypal in full how is that? Lived here 24 years? IRS is happy to send our refunds etc. Good seller helped.LOT OF 3 Gemini by Crafter's Companion ~ Stamp & Die ~bundle NEW 669952 C80 (#394295747220)
