‘Drawing and painting from nature is a way of engaging ourselves emotionally with the forms that we study. If the forms are intensely felt through the process of painting, then the resulting artwork will contain the harmony that we seek. The work fails if we are disengaged for some reason. Painting is not some “servile copying”, as Paul Cézanne put it, but rather “to seize a harmony between numerous relations”’, the artist has said.
