The hidden harmony is better than the obvious.

If all the ways I have been along were marked on a map and joined up with a line, it might represent a minotaur.

Matisse makes a drawing, then he makes a copy of it. He copies it five times, ten times, always clarifying the line. He’s convinced that the last, the most stripped down, is the best, the purest, the definitive one; and in fact, most of the time, it was the first. In drawing, nothing is better than the first attempt.
