Hello all,

I'm looking to learn some tools for making programmer art. (for prototypes and whatnot)

Are there any resources you've used that have been very helpful and stood out to you when learning art skills as programmers?

The book Texturing and Modeling: A Procedural Approach was super helpful for me. That being said, on Amazon it's listed for $101 USD for the hardcover edition, which is way more than I paid for it many years ago. A lot of the information in that book can be found online, as it deals greatly with things like fractal noise.
