REVIEW AND INTERVIEW: I HEART ART

I’m delighted to offer this giveaway of the children’s picture book,
​I HEART ART, written by Mukta Chowdhary. I have the great pleasure of calling Mukta my friend. She inspired me to follow my dream of writing children’s books. We met as former colleagues at Fullscreen where we worked on some pretty amazing advertising campaigns reaching Gen Z and Millennial audiences. Our favorite campaign was an initiative to combat Teen Cyberbullying in partnership with AT&T. It was a very special time I hold dear to my heart because we were part of a campaign that made a real difference in kids’ lives. 
 
Mukta is an extraordinary person. She is the kind of person who radiates warmth and compassion the moment you meet her and it comes through in her writing. 
 

I HEART ART is a book that follows a little Indian girl, Muskan, as she attempts to draw a self-portrait. Just like the great artists of our past, like Salvador Dali, Frida Kalo, and Vincent Van Gogh, Muskan has a unique way with her brush skills. Just when she is about to give up, she realizes her art is special…just like her. 
 
Mukta, what inspired you to write I HEART ART?
Growing up as an Indian American, I didn't have any picture books with characters that looked like me. I was inspired to tell a story about a girl who loves art and who happens to be Indian. 
 
What is the most important thing you want readers to take away from reading your book?
I think the most important thing is to nurture your inner artist.  The story is really about the beauty of the process - whether it's art, music, science or writing - usually, you won't get it right the first time but that's okay because all those other drafts, failures, drawings are what leads you to your growth.
 
TRUTH! 
 
PLEASE CONTINUE TO FOLLOW MUSKAN ON HER JOURNEY….
