I have a few books, but I&#8217;d like to get a few more on anatomy, and colour theory. I&#8217;ve never really been able to draw people, sticking to mostly organic shapes and landscapes, but it&#8217;s something that has always been on my &#8216;wish list&#8217; so to speak. So I&#8217;ve been doing a bit of research, and plan on doing a bit of shopping (eventually). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One &#8216;must have&#8217; I grabbed, is the book pictured above &#8211; A Dictionary of Color Combinations. This book is lovely, and is just filled with page after page of color combinations. Nothing fancy, nothing complicated. If I&#8217;m stuck, I can just flip open to a page and find something that appeals to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Have any recommendations for art theory reference books?
