The children screams really set the tone for being a starting kidslit illustrator. My wallet isn’t ready for this video!

[@AnooshaSyed]

Truly sums up the life of an illustrator haha

[@micaela.herrera]

I love this, same --my wallet is like "um are you sure you want to watch it?" ahah

[@salfordnurse]

I love watching Art book collection videos, seems we have similar tastes as we have pretty much the same books. (theres about 4-5 I havent got but second hand prices are crazy between £100 -£600 for the iron Giant one)

[@kingtigerbooks1162]

Art books are the stuff of dreams. Oceans, deserts, angels, forests, still life, plants and people -- the images stay with you long after you have finished the book. Sci Fi art books are even better. These are my 2 favorite art books on Amazon: - Aviation Art by Lou Drendel - Great Fighter Jets of the Galaxy 1 by Tim Gibson

[@lunamiranda23]

I’ve been trying to remember the name of Draw Stronger for a while now, and when I saw it I was Like YES THATS THE BOOK!! Taking care of ourselves as artists is super important and I’m so glad I can finally order it. Thank you so much Anoosha! 😊

[@DoodleDate]

I finally got chance to sit down and watch this, I'm obsessed with art book hauls so thanks for indulging me hahaha

[@AnooshaSyed]

Thank you Steph!! It’s such a struggle!!! And I wish the books weren’t so heavy hahaha

[@joanneadeniyi5926]

Art books are my go-to in the future!

[@mmgringoire2]

Great collection! I love James Gurney's book as a reference, even if I don't utilize it as much as I should. For art books, I would also recommend The Art of Wolfwalkers. It is an absolutely beautiful book with the perfect combination of pictures and text. Art of Beauty and the Beast is also amazing.

[@AnooshaSyed]

I didn’t know BatB had a book! I’ll definitely have to check it out!!

[@cece6337]

HELL YEAH I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS THANK YOU ANOOSHA

[@AnooshaSyed]

✷ YOU ARE WELCOME!!!!! ✷

[@oatmealhamster]

I was just thinking about my art books! Cant wait to see your collection!

[@AnooshaSyed]

Hope you enjoy!!

[@patriciahamilton1301]

HI, I a retired nurse who is returning to my first love art. I enjoy all your videos. If you are looking for things to talk about: How about how to draw different characters, people, animal, scenery, etc? From start to finish. Other KZbin videos talk about their families or towns they live in. I hope this helps.

[@AnooshaSyed]

Thanks for the suggestions!

[@danyramos8139]

Yes to the picture Books collection!

[@joyandgraceart]

This is the best art book collection!

[@prashun07]

Thank you So much Anoosha for this.. I wanted to buy some artbooks for myself since a very longtime and i was quite in a dilemma of sorts as to which to buy first... This video helped a lot. Since i'm more into comics and children's illustrations the books suggested by you at the near end will definitely top my list.. Thanks again. You are awesome.. :)

[@AnooshaSyed]

Thank you!!

[@MimimooIllustration]

All of these books look SO GOOD! I have The Art of Up and The Art of Moana and I love them so much, they're such a fantastic resource for artists 😍

[@AnooshaSyed]

Ooh I should get those!!

[@-i_own_you_-]

Ahhh amazing collection

[@sunshell]

i love watching your videos! as an artist, i find them rly rly helpful!

[@AnooshaSyed]

thank you!!!

[@risita9858]

I have the Design and Animation books for the Disney archive series and they were so great for me through high school ish time love looking at the art of those especially design. Animation one really helped me with learning anatomy for animation style design through studies and stuff. They are the only art books I have but they are fascinating to go through

[@AnooshaSyed]

It’s a beautiful collection!

[@monikaazariah9237]

Loved all these books....wow...thanks for the walkthrough 😍

[@AnooshaSyed]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@rose-gv7st]

YOUR EYES is mesmerising 😩✨

[@BloodylocksBathory]

I'm jealous of some of your books, the design volume from the Disney four-parter in particular. I think my favorite The Art of [...] book is probably Rango, even after all these years. I might have to get that guide book on rates and prices.

[@AnooshaSyed]

I loved Rango!!! I would love to get a copy one day :)

[@freyavalon]

I made the mistake of getting a few of 3dtotal publishing's books, and now I just want all of them. Especially the 'sketching from imagination' series is just so fantastic!

[@AnooshaSyed]

Ooh I’ll have to check them out!

[@MariJadeWrites]

Thank you so much for sharing all of this, must have taken a while to film and edit, thanks for the effort! :)

[@AnooshaSyed]

You’re welcome!

[@sherinasiraj]

I would totally buy an art book by you about your work♥️♥️♥️ Something like Beatrice blue made documenting her journey

[@AnooshaSyed]

Oh I would love that!!

[@mmayfield37]

I'm really glad I clicked on this video!! I love the way you discuss your thoughts and ideas about the books you have. The art of Frozen & Monster's University are in my personal collection, as well as Moana, The Incredibles 2, Coco, Toy Story 4 and Ray and the Last Dragon. Several of the books you mentioned I used the public library to check out myself. I'm surprized that no MCU books made your list. I have 11 of their books: Black Panther, Avengers: Endgame and the 2 Spider-Man films. I love reading them too!! I don't want to pay out the money for a book that doesn't educate me to the process. I've got a couple of books from films that were not well received, but their art books were actually really good: Green Lantern and the live action Ghost in the Shell. I've learned a lot about setting a price for my own artwork through watching your videos. Keep up the great work that you're doing!

[@AnooshaSyed]

Thank you! I usually stick to animation-illustration books but might have to look into the marvel ones :)

[@celinaG97forever]

I’m late to watching this video but I loved that you said that you don’t really read them haha because I do the same. I can look at the art for ages but haven’t finished reading most of my art books ! You are such an aspiring artist And i love your videos:) and great recommendations

[@AnooshaSyed]

Thank you!!

[@FabianKaeser1985]

i love ---> The Art And Making Of The Peanuts Movie

[@Anaieu]

thanks for share your lovely books with us! I just want to say that I'm in love with your earrings, they're so cute 😍

[@AnooshaSyed]

Oh thank you! Theyre from @StudioMeggy :)

[@Anaieu]

@@AnooshaSyed oh, thanks for the info! I really admire your art and your channel 💕 you are inspiring!

[@gleamglowanimation637]

Hey just so you know there are 4 in the archive series: animation, design, layout and background, and story. I love all of them!!

[@AnooshaSyed]

Ahh thanks for the heads up!

[@haticesahin60]

[@16LifeGames]

Fantastic 😊 My favorite book is Saturno Buttò by The Guide Artists. Amazing quality.

[@ShaunaLynnIllustrates]

I bought Draw Stronger at ICON Conference one year and I really need to use it. Especially because I woke up this morning with a stiff neck and shoulders and am in a lot of pain. :(

[@AnooshaSyed]

oh nooo i hope you feel better!!

[@cris_tamay]

Anoosha you should get The art of The Book of Life and The art of Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs 2. Also (not an art book) This is The World by M. Sasek if you don't already have it =D

[@AnooshaSyed]

Thanks for the suggestions! :)

The Art of Tangled was my first art book too! And it looks just as worn XD

[@AnooshaSyed]

It’s such a good book!

[@SmallTownSpells]

@@AnooshaSyed Still one of my faves!

[@esi22]

Omg i love this, thanks for this review! I am so new at illustrating that i didn't even know such books exist, i am such a newbieeee😂 i think I'm gonna buy the art of tangled😍 also Anoosha I've a q, how long do you think should one practice and learn until ready to illustrate a book? I started an online illustrating course 4 months ago and i am so impatient, i wanna illustrate my book asap🥲

[@AnooshaSyed]

Potentially you could start as early as you want! However you might find that it’s less about how much you practice but more about what your art looks like and if it is marketable, that might be a barrier along the way. Depending on how you are publishing your book; if you’re doing traditional pub you might need to win over an agent or the publisher, and if you’re self pub then your art needs to resonate with an audience so you can sell copies.

[@AnooshaSyed]

There isn’t a required time you need to practice, and I’ve seen successful artists with various skill levels, but it all depends on if you’re able to appeal to your specific audience and if not, then you just gotta work at it a lil more. Hope that makes sense!

[@esi22]

Thank you so much this was helpful!

[@esi22]

Do you check your DM's on insta? I wish to send you some of my illistrations🥲

[@esi22]

When i publish my first book i want to send you a copy. You are the first illustrator ever that i watched and learned and got inspired from. You will always be special to me😍 even though you dont know me😊 love u Anoosha
