“Drawing turns the creative mind to expose its workings. Drawing discloses the heart of visual thought, coalesces spirit and perception, conjures imagination; drawing is an act of meditation, an exorcism of disorder, a courting of artistic ideas; above all it is the lean instrument of visual formulation and the vortex of artistic sensibility.” Edward Hill, The Language of Drawing, 1966
