Back to the drawing board.

I used to draw a lot. Then I got disenchanted, because the results often fell short of what I had hoped for. I also compared my work to other people’s, which is a foolish thing to do, though hard to avoid. But in essence, I got distracted by concentrating on a perceived goal - the finished drawing - rather than on the process and the activity itself. When viewed in this light, then drawing, like so many other things, can be a form of meditation. I owe that insight (or reminder) to my friend, the excellent painter Tom Young.
