Art and Fear
Art and Fear, Observations on the Perils (and Rewards) of Artmaking" by David Bayles and Ted Orland is absolutely required reading for any artist and all of my future art students. (I will be teaching a drawing class in the spring.) I re-read this book about once a year. It was given to me by a dear friend and fellow artist, Michele M., and I am so grateful to her for the gift. For any artist who has ever been plagued by questions of self-doubt (that is, all artists), stopped in your tracks, or quit art for whatever reason, this book is for you. ISBN 0-9614547-3-3.

I could not agree more with your recommendation. Several years ago, I was fortunate to engage in an extended online dialogue with David. He is the genuine article.
