Professors

Dear Professors:

While this work was written for artists of all ages, it has proven to be of broad appeal to universities nationwide, and is being adopted for Capstone Courses, Professional Practice Courses, or simply as supplemental reading. The book is meant to help artists make their way in the art world, and to give them essential knowledge as they face their individual journeys, and try to establish their careers. Numerous professors have told us that it does this very well.

Regarding Quantity Discounts, Hillstead Publishing gives a 50% discount to bookstores, and other organizations, off the retail price of $16.95 for the paperback ($23.95 for the hardback). An order of ten or more constitutes a Quantity Discount. Many bookstore managers feel this discount is generous, which we meant it to be. Shipping costs are moderate, and can be found under the Quantity Discounts section of the website.

Individual orders can be placed through Hillstead Publishing, Amazon.com, Borders, Barnes & Noble, and Hastings Books. All of these chains are already carrying the work in select stores; it will be available as a stocked item at most stores nationally by August of 2004.

This is a quality publication that was designed to be both aesthetically appealing and durable. It was written to supplement the many lessons that you teach your students, and to help guide them through the maze that is the art world, and the artist's life. It was also written to communicate profound ideas in a simple, straightforward manner. We've been told that the work's passion, and the pace and style of the prose, inspires artists as it keeps them engaged. That certainly was Paul Dorrell's intent when he wrote the book; it's gratifying to all of us to know that he achieved that goal.

If you wish to purchase the work to consider it for a class, please go to Buy This Book. Otherwise, thank-you for visiting the site.

Sincerely,

Hillstead Publishing Staff
