Are there any nonfiction books on the act of creating art? Everything I've read on the topic comes from philosophers who are the last people on earth who should be talking about art.

My life by Benvenuto Cellini? Mostly it's about him not being a fag and kicking the ass or outright shooting people who annoyed him.

War of Art by Pressfield if you want a self help book rather than studied renaissance epicness.
