Awful Art - Maia.

Awful Art - Informational Text.

Michael Cox gives an idea of  how, when and where art came about. Starting from cavemen painting animals on the walls of caves to artists cutting off their ears for inspiration. This book has everything and anything you've ever wanted to know to do with how art was created. I liked this book because it gave me more knowledge on one of my favourite subjects whilst also telling the life stories of famous artists including Vincent Van Gough and Sir Stanley Spencer. Although it is very informative it also has a sense of fun by including the reader in questionnaires to see if they are 'owners of artistic temperaments' and many more.
