You can only learn to paint by drawing, for drawing is a way of reserving a place for color in advance.
To use color well is as difficult as for a fish to pass from water to air or earth.
You must be classic. Put yourselves before the model in a workmanlike spirit.
Is it not quite a modern vice, this habit of draining a canvas at a single glance as some people gulp down a cocktail, and complaining of unintelligibility and complication whenever a work requires study and patience on the part of the spectator?
Drawing is the sum of directions.
