looks he sees something new. Then quickly, lightly, with as few motions as possible he reproduces what he saw in the model. If he is not satisfied with his reproduction he looks at his model again, and keeps looking until it comes to him, just how to get the effect he is after. Then a few more quick, light strokes and success is his. This is what the wise artist does. The foolish one keeps looking at the canvas, to see where the mistake lies; his eye is filled by his imperfect work. The wise artist fills his eye with the perfect model. The unwise artist, seeing only mistakes, is discouraged and incapacitated; while the wise artist feasts upon the perfections of his model, and is inspired to try, try again until he hits it just right.
