Hi Sara,
How about the novel by Joyce Cary, The Horse’s Mouth, featuring the fictional artist Gully Jimson (1942?)? See article on NPR < http://www.npr.org/2011/07/06/137044181/an-artists-life-tough-toilsome-and-tiring-times >.
Best, Marilyn

Subject: [ARLIS-L] Fiction about creativity?
Dear ARLIS-L,
A faculty member has asked me about works of fiction with creativity as the subject. Any suggestions?
We have titles with artists--fiction<http://catalog.library.uarts.edu/search/?searchtype=d&searchscope=1&searcharg=artists+fiction> and painters--drama<http://catalog.library.uarts.edu/search/?searchtype=d&searchscope=1&searcharg=painters+drama> as the subject, but perhaps you have a favorite you'd like to recommend.
