Speaking generally Art endevours to reveal what is true and needs to be free.
An artist whose integrity sustains his strength to make no compromise with expediency is never degraded.
I approach drawing solely for structure.
Drawing demands freedom, freedom demands liberty to expand in space – this is progress. By the extension of democracy – good draughtsmanship is – Democracy’s visual sign. To draw with integrity replaces bad habits with good, youth preserved from corruption. The hand works at high tension and organises as it simplifies, reducing to barest essentials, stripping all irrelevant matter
obstructing the rapidly forming organisation which reveals the design. This is drawing.
Good judgement is through good drawing – from the nervous system to the sensory of the brain it is the combination of eurythmics, euphony and poetry, and when the good draughtsman draws, the muses come to dance. Then the imagination is given full play, and design happens. They then become the Muses.
