Artist at 95 Shares Career Secrets in New Book

A celebrated British artist has published a guide to a creative life at the age of 95. David Gentleman’s career spans eight decades. His work includes watercolour paintings, London Underground murals, and drawings of major events. He rarely gave direct instruction to his children. But he has now written "Lessons for Young Artists." The book offers advice from his long career. His daughter, journalist Amelia Gentleman, helped with the book. She says she learned key lessons from watching him work, even without inheriting his artistic skill. The advice is not just for art students. It is for anyone wanting a sustainable career in creative work. The book focuses on building a life around what you enjoy doing most.
