12 Must-Read Novels that Inspire Ideas + Artwork
As an artist, inspiration often arrives in unexpected ways. Sometimes itâs a color in nature, other times itâs a story that lingers long after the last page. Books open doors to new ideas, emotions, and perspectivesâand for me, they often spark the beginnings of a painting.
This reading list features novels that explore time, identity, resilience, and human connectionâstories that remind us of lifeâs complexity and beauty. From alternate histories and time travel to art-world intrigue and friendships that defy age, these books are perfect for your next cozy read or creative boost.
