Your force field

The whole progress of an artist, I guess, is to learn what your gravity is, what your language is, what your force field is, how you can draw others in to see as you see, rather than giving in and seeing as others see.
- Melinda Gebbie, colaborator with Alan Moore on Lost Girls

That's very smart. It is so tricky to learn to "draw good" that in the process one can easily lose sight of the fact that there are other ways to see things than the Great Average.

Most people are too lazy to learn to "draw good", or lack the talent, and then they rationalize it.
