Not so common books about making art

[Lynnel]

I'm looking for books that are deep and quite profound about making art.

Something along the lines of John Ruskan - Emotion and art.

Most standard books about writing or art don't help you much aside from small generic principles and don't offer much practical advice on how to solve creative problems, handle the struggle, etc.

Thus, I'm looking for something more deep about art making.

Please no : Steven Pressfield with the magical resistance, steven king on writing, those are too common and too shallow.

[Leo Gura]

Eric Maisel has a lot of books around that subject.
