Drawing

Drawing is everything to me.

Drawing can be the romantic space, romantic in the sense of dream and quest. It belongs to a winter phase and like our idea of a sketch, a drawing for a future Ideal.

Drawing is where one works things out, for me, thinks content and arrives with a form.

Drawing repeated arrives at a classic sense to be repeated again into Symbols. We may accept this "as right," though there is always a distance from the "truth" so room for evolution.

A cycle of thought revolves around. Trying to get it just "right" then, always arriving back to draw it again.

There is also a sense of drawing which has to do with a certain ease of language. This signals a rudimentary belief it seems.

Drawing as language holds alot of surprises as just as language creates on it's own so does a line, drawing unexpected things together. Literal magic!, the reversal of black and white.
