It wasn't an art book or drawing book per se, but helped me build a more unique & diverse skillset as an artist

As an example, years ago when I was first getting serious about art, I found a book about ballet costuming in the $1 bin at the library. I don't care about ballet, but I learned a lot from that book about strong expressive poses and clear silhouettes that has carried forward into my animation work

Also, find obscure books at the library or used book store. let yourself find unique sources of inspiration that will give you tools and strengths other artists don't have. Skimming the top page of results on google is better than using AI, but it's still largely generic & surface level

Personally feel like digging deeper is how you get to the good stuff. Find out the names of artists you love. Read interviews with them where they talk about who they love, (influences & contemporaries) and build up a library of your own influences. graft yourself onto the big family tree of artists

Also you can tell she's a pro, because its a story that takes place in a school, and I think has maybe 4 characters in total?
