Quotes by Bert Dodson (?)

“I believe that most of us, students and artists alike, ought to concern ourselves less with what we think is the right way to draw and more with letting our feelings flow through our hand. In this way, we stretch our dynamic nature. Our larger goal should be to draw in a way that expresses our vision.”
― Bert Dodson, Keys to Drawing

“Art actually happens somewhere in the space between clarity and ambiguity, concept and intuition, thought and feeling.”

“None of us need ever fear that we don't have an active imagination, because imagination is mostly a willingness to entertain a strange idea now and then.”
