These drawings have nothing to do with expression of the perspective of a space that their subjects occupy. Or nothing I can perceive that way. I include them because I'm so impressed with the concentrated effort it took to make them, every line so carefully considered and placed. All those little stippled marks, all the effort of the wickerwork. They are a reminder to me that if I want to improve, I must put in time and effort. Not every work of art needs to look labored over, but it takes time and effort to look as casual as Dufy.
