Thank you for these recommendations! Great list of inspiring books! I would love to hear about the watercolor books you recommend as I mostly work with watercolor.

After watching a previous video from you I got the book Botanicum from our local library - it is full of fabulous shape ideas. Already had Still Life on my wish list and have now added Print and Pattern: Nature. Thank you for the recommendations.

This was great! I too collect books that inspire my art and one of my favorites is called “Around the World in 80 Plants” by Jonathan Drori and illustrated by artist Lucille Clerc. I love being inspired by other artists, too, and you have been one of the most inspirational for the kind of art I do. So, thank you for this.

Very interesting selection. Wish our library was more diverse, but it (and the whole system in our area) mostly focuses on kids when it comes to art. So it had only two of the books listed. Would love to see your books on mark making and watercolor! Thanks!

Beautiful diverse collection. I'm behind on video watching at the moment for two reasons. The main reason is I have a very short attention span since my dad died & it's even shorter if something else is on my mind. That leads me to the work I'm doing in my garden to get it sorted out & a new shed installed as mine leaked.

When I started painting I bought watercolor books. They are too detailed for me now. Since then I added different color supplies. The: Print & Pattern, would focus me best. For a couple of years I’ve journal crafted. My natural styl is to want to simplify 💕🌼🐾💚

While I love the few watercolour books I have, I don't refer to them as much as other types of books and I certainly relate to the quest for simplification!!
