I admit, most of the books are in Japanese; but if you are fond of art, it might just be good enough. There’s also an English section, so don’t be afraid to explore the books over there too.
The pictures, drawings, paintings, and illustrations can be of an interest to anyone and inspire you in whatever you do, whether it’s designing your dream home, (Japanese) garden, fashion, ceramics, or anything else.
I found one very nice ink-painting book I liked, and luckily it was in English. It explains the techniques to paint sumi-e, but of course, still can’t replace a teacher.
