Sketch is a prelude to a masterpiece. Sketch is something that is mutual for painting, sculpture, filming and other art form. Sketch is the idea in the purest form, is the moment when artist is the most honest, he doesn't judge his own work, he can make mistakes, he's the strongest and the most vulnerable at the same time. That's why I believe more in sketches than in finished art works and that's why I get very intimate feeling when I can see artist sketchbooks.
We may have general idea of how our life should look like. We may have plans, even very clear ones. But we don't have another piece of clay or another white canvas, we have only one life. Our life is our sketch. It will never be finished masterpiece, always rather basic idea that you're trying to make real. If you ask me-that's life's biggest beauty! That is always a bit clumsy, a bit "not the way it suppose to be!", a bit irregular but also so yours, so very yours.
