I'd love to hear from anyone with a few of their favourites. I'll compile them and post it on my blog. Any books that inspire or motivate you......
My list (no particular order) would include:
- Surface Designers Handbook by Holly Brackman
- Acrylic Revolution by Nancy Reyner
- Creating Sketchbooks by Kay Greenlees
- any of the Motif and Pattern books by Graham Leslie McCallum
- Art and Fear by David Bayles and Ted Orland
I'd love to hear from you.....

I have a lot of books that I refer to. My two most frequently used (at the moment) are: Collage & Altered Art by Roni Johnson and Fabric Collage Art by Rebekah Meier.
Mine would include all of Nancy Crow's books. I have 2 out of the 3 she has published. Her first one is out of print.
