I aspire to being able to sit and record my thoughts, my ideas, in prose, poetry, and sketch work with enough skill and clarity to spur more and better thoughts. A feedback loop, if you will, a conversation with my own mind through the physicality of putting a pencil to paper.

The crumples add drama to the lines. Not quite getting the hand of perspective yet, then.
btw "Drawing with the Right Side of the Brain" is a marvellous book - well recommended...(doubt there is an e-version)
