Book Synopsis
You have a unique Destiny, an unquenchable dream inside you that's waiting for you to take action. Maybe you are an artist.
But chances are you've been told that you'll starve on the streets if you pursue your art. That's what Elli Milan was told, too.
Unemployable: The Odyssey of an Artist is the inspiring journey of contemporary powerhouse artist, Elli Milan, deciding to pursue her Destiny. Step into her story of overcoming family expectations, shattering the "starving artist" myth, and achieving her dream of becoming a professional artist.
Described as rebellious and hopelessly romantic at the same time, Greek-American artist Elli Milan draws you into her vivid personal history, told through the lens of a unique cultural experience. A voyage filled to the brim with Grecian mythos, you'll be inspired as she conquers her Cyclops, dances with the Fates, and forges on to create her destined Promised Land for artists, all with her family beside her.
Become inspired as you follow this refreshingly honest dreamer and her family through seemingly impossible adventures, setbacks, and victories. Embark with Elli as she maneuvers through the dark underbelly of the art industry, the economic crash of 2008, and watching her world literally burn before her eyes and you'll find the courage to grab hold of your own passion and conquer your dreams.
Unemployable is for any dreamer who was ever told not to fly too close to the sun, and dares to anyway.
