Drawing registers the transforming effects of the imagination and the memory.
Drawings are images of flux; flux both imaginative and physical.

Drawing is a verb.
There is no way to make a drawing-there is only drawing.
Richard Serra

The Drawing Book
Tania Kovats
Drawing is something where you have  a really direct-immediate relationship with the material. You make a mark, and then you make another mark in relation to that mark.
Kiki Smith
The Body
Rodin's lines dont just represent carnality; they are themselves carnal, invasive, sexy. Uninterrupted by the space between the material and the body; the line made by the drawing hand stands in for other haptic things. The body is where drawing begins and where it ends.

Looking at images does not lead us to the truth, it leads us into temptation.

Examining Life Drawing as Methexis

Rather than regarding life-drawing as an event of realism, it may be more productive to
explore it as an assemblage of events, a field of practices, or as a cluster of performances.
