Coffee

A early pencil study of ceramic ware.
No idea about the date.
From one of my sketchbooks.

COFFEE

Coffee is important. 

It is my breakfast. 

Preachers will preach at me: 

That is the most important meal of the day!

"Eat something!" They shout.

Why? 

I should eat when I am not hungry?

 Nonsense.

Please Understand

Following is not always good.

Unfortunately, 

it is always comforting to be of The Pack.

I don't consider the above text poetry.   Although, it kind of looks like poetry.  I kinda carefully chose the words and positions. However, That particular art form eludes my hunt for expression.

What does this have to do with understanding drawing?  

It is the concept of relationships

It is the positions of the words on the page and how that confers importance.  What the words say is secondary, although I do feel this way.  

Title is left justified.  

Text is falls from left to right landing on the point of the writing.  

The following is important to the understanding of painting.  That is not the same as painting.

If this is photographed in black and white the red color will turn out as black.  The term in art is value, which means how dark a color can get.  I use this attribute of color when I analysis my paintings with a monochrome cellphone snap.

Concepts and ideas are transferable useful across the board.  In my experience, they are needed to understand, to read a painting/drawing.   To actually paint something or draw something, they tend to serve as challenges to overcome.
