"In composing this book I have tried to articulate this process using my own sketches and personal observations along with a few quotations. It is not a narrative about the technical aspects of how to draw, but a perspective of some of the more ephemeral facets of the process - alternatives to engrained habits. It is rather an exploration of the experience of unfettered ways of seeing. What motivated me was hearing the complaints of unsuccessful drawing experiences from the participants at some of the life drawing sessions I hosted ... The drawings in this book represent a partial compilation of body studies from the three years prior to the pandemic, during two-hour life drawing sessions."-- Preface.
