Books that make me want to paint

So I'm on night shift and reading this really awesome book that I refound on my art bookshelf. This bookshelf contains books on sewing, painting, drawing, and fabric art (not quite sewing but kinda like sewing). The book is called The New Artist's Manual I've linked it just incase someone wants a better look at it or is feeling artsy and doesn't know where to begin. I'm hoping this helps me with my oil paintings. And for those of you who put in an order for a painting I haven't forgotten about you, I'm still painting. Except for Tom (i doubt he reads this) I'm having trouble giving you yours because I love it so much, BUT it will end up in your hands soon.
