Walter Foster Publishing is celebrating its 100th anniversary, and we wanted to look back on some fun and important moments in art history since its founding in 1922. Did you know that surrealism became a popular style of art in the 1920s? In 1924, two Surrealist Manifestos were published in Paris, France. They came from two rival surrealists, neither of whom were artists--writers André Breton and Yvan Goll.

Create your own mind-bending surrealist art with The Art of Drawing Optical Illusions by Jonathan Stephen Harris! And check back next month for another art fact from history!

Hey, it’s National Fruit Cocktail Day today! This is my favorite page from my craft book, Make Cute Stuff With Polymer Clay; it’s so ridiculously silly that I was convinced my editor annika_geiger would never use it, and I was ✨thrilled✨ when I saw it had made the cut. Hope you have a fruit-filled day! 🍓🍇🍐🍊🍌
