Favorite books

I'm a self-taught artist and a lover of books! They are one of my favorite ways to learn and an endless source of inspiration and pleasure. I wouldn't be the artist I am today if it weren't for those artists and authors who have lit the way and generously shared their gifts, whether creative or spiritual... and pretty often both!

In the selection below you will find:

• art books about painting, mixed media, collage, illustration, abstract, florals, encaustic, fiber arts and more

• books on creativity, being an artist, making a creative home and running a creative business

• inspirational books and card decks
