DESCRIPTION:When there&rsquo\;s no limit to what you can create\, the hardest question isn&rsquo\;t how\, it&rsquo\;s why. Designer\, artist\, and author Adam J. Kurtz gets real about what happens when &ldquo\;be yourself&rdquo\; actually works. Expect heart\, humor\, and stories that&rsquo\;ll make you feel better about your own f&rsquo\;ed-up creative process. Let&rsquo\;s get personal: -Connect who you are to what you make\, and why it matters -Reframe the big questions around failure\, change\, and the unexpected weight of success -Explore what profit really looks like: financial\, creative\, and otherwise It&rsquo\;s a true story of going from &ldquo\;popular online&rdquo\; to major client work\, a million books sold\, and a retail business of his own\, with all the lessons\, doubts\, and surprises along the way. &ndash\;&ndash\;&ndash\;&ndash\;&ndash\;&ndash\;&ndash\;&ndash\;&ndash\;&ndash\;&ndash\; Adam J. Kurtz (&ldquo\;Adam JK&rdquo\;) is a Toronto-born\, Honolulu-based artist whose illustrative work is rooted in honesty\, humor\, and a little bit of darkness. His books and journals including Things Are What You Make of Them have sold over a million copies in twenty languages. Obsessed with aphorisms and ephemera\, Kurtz&rsquo\;s work seeks to craft new reminders from familiar sources\, offering his brand of &ldquo\;back-handed optimism&rdquo\; as a token of encouragement and camaraderie for other creative\, emotional\, and deeply human people. In 2024\, Kurtz and his husband opened a shop called SMALL KINE GIFT.
