"Allen has produced a wonderful book for anyone, artistic or not,
who is interested in using art to know more about himself or
herself."—Elizabeth Caulfield Felt, Washington State University,
Pullman, Library Journal
"Art Is A Way of Knowing has a practical, hands on, and
experiential feel to it. It is like a guide book or a manual for
those interested in self-exploration through creative activity.
Allen persistently invites the reader to join her. I found her to
be an encouraging and competent guide."—American Journal of Art
Therapy
"Finally, a self-help book that is true to the passionate and
turbulent movements of the soul in the process of creation."—Shaun
