/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

As I get a bit deeper in art I'm beginning to embrace the abstract way of thinking about detail and texture and how we can "trick" the eye into believing there is more work than is actually present. That less is actually more in just about every piece and to almost leave yourself wanting a little more before finishing.

I'm wondering, what are some good books that cover this topic? I'd like to reinforce my knowledge on the topic.
