“The real voyage of Discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.” Marcel Proust

"You can't do sketches enough. Sketch everything and keep your curiosity fresh." John Singer Sargent.

"Photography is an immediate reaction, drawing is a meditation." Henri Cartier-Bresson
