Re: Computer Art Books

In addition to the advice already offered, go to a large bookstore 
and browse in the Art section, which probably has a Design 
subsection, and maybe a Typography subsection. You should find 
numerous books that cover graphics--not HTML--there. Also, if you're 
near a university/college bookstore, you may want to see what books 
are used in the relevant art courses.
	Some books are instructional/how to books. Others are 
collections of works--e.g., posters, or ads, or business cards, or 
logos, etc.--which may give you some ideas.

Among the magazines that may be of interest: Graphis; and Communication Arts.
