I’m reading ‘Drawing Projects’ Maslen & Southern – Black Dog publishing, which combines thoughts and ideas about drawing, interviews and discussions with artists about drawing and how it forms part of their practice, with a series of practical drawing exercises. I’m still trying to make myself do more drawing (well, ANY drawing really) following a couple of earlier failed attempts. Browsing the book I found this quote which I liked:
“Process is more important than outcome. When the outcome drives the process we will only ever go to where we’ve been. If process drives outcome, we may not know where we are going, but we’ll know we want to be there.”
Bruce Mau
Having no idea who Bruce Mau was, went straight to Google and his beautiful site. He’s head of a design and innovation studio in Toronto. I especially liked his ‘Incomplete Manifesto for Growth’Incomplete Manifesto for Growth – Bruce Mau
