The Way of the Maker - Eric Wesselow's 'Life Through Art'

The articles collected in this volume have been selected and edited by Scott Eastham from over twenty years of Eric Wesselow's lectures and writings. They center on art and spirituality but also encompass linguistics, philosophy, communication studies, and education. In these essays, Wesselow demonstrates an uncanny capacity for allowing the reader to witness the processes of art from the inside.
