"Love Is an Art may resemble the hushed, spectral Liberman in its form and sound, but this 2020 album from Vanessa Carlton isn't a rehash of its 2015 predecessor. Carlton lifts the slight air of melancholy that hung over Liberman yet retains much of its atmospheric murk, emphasizing gently shifting moods as much as melody. Still, the title reveals her intentions here"

"In essence, Love Is An Art acts as a guide to love itself. Beautifully easy-going and smooth, Carlton has shown the effects an album as an entity can have in a streaming/shuffling world"
