Realize that a drawing is not a copy. It is a construction in very different materials. A drawing is an invention.

There is no art without contemplation.

Find out what you really like if you can. Find out what is really important to you. Then sing your song. You will have something to sing about and your whole heart will be in the singing.

You will never draw the sense of a thing unless you are feeling it at the time you work.
