"Draw as little as is compatible with your conscience - put down spots of color. Seeing things as silhouettes is drawing - the outline of your subject against the background, the outline and size of each spot of color against every other spot of color it touches, is the only kind of drawing you need bother about. If you do that faithfully you will be surprised at the result... The majority of painters don't realize what it is all about - they believe in reproducing nature in stead of expressing themselves in beautiful spots of color. Let color make form - do not make form and color it. Forget about drawing..."
Charles Hawthorne
