摘要、提要註:	What drives an artist to create? And are there common traits that successful artists possess? In 'The Making of an Artist', Kristin G. Congdon draws on her years of studying and teaching art at all levels - from universities to correctional settings - to identify three traits that are regularly found in successful artists: desire, courage and commitment. Congdon here presents essays exploring each of those traits, enriched by ethnographic case studies of six visual artists from diverse backgrounds and locations whose practices embody them. Marrying the work of biography, journalism, sociology and psychology, the book opens up the often mysterious process of making art, showing us how those characteristics play into it, as well as how other factors, such as trauma, madness, class and gender, affect the ways that people approach the creative process.
