Creativity Begins With You
During his 12 years teaching at Falmouth University, Dion collaborated with colleague Andy Neal to distill their experience into the creation of this book:
Creativity Begins With You
31 Practical Workshops to Explore Your Creative Potential
Can creativity be 'taught'? Or is it simply innate?
This book will help you find your creativity through your own unique identity and experience, challenging you to fight those negative voices, get out of your habitual comfort zones and – most importantly – play. Part practical workshop and part provocative guide, Creativity Begins With You is an invaluable companion for any student working across the creative disciplines.
