quotes
"He (the artist) moves through life as he finds it, not passing negligently the
things he loves, but stopping to know them, and to note them down in the
shorthand of his sketch book... He is looking for what he loves, he tries to capture
it. It's found anywhere, everywhere. Those who are not hunters do not see these
things. The hunter is learning to see and to understand — to enjoy."
— Robert Henri
"The cartoonist, when he sketches, is going through a process of study. He
concentrates upon the model, plumbs its movement, bulk, outline. Then he sets it
down, remembering that he wants only the spirit — the "guts" of the thing he's
after. He puts into his drawing all his experience. He simplifies. He plays with his
line. He experiments. He isn't concerned with anatomy, chiaroscuro or the
symmetry of "flowing line." There's nothing highbrow about his approach to the
sketch pad. He is drawing because he likes to draw! All types of sketching benefit
the artist. Never stop sketching! Sketch at home, in the subway, on picnics, in art
school or in bed. But SKETCH!

Toy Story
I've always been a fan of the entire Toy Story series. During Toy Story 1 I ate a whole bunch of terrible kids meal to get the toy story characters, which weren't available to buy. I don't know what to say to the woman who claims she wants to stop fast food restaurants from enticing children to eat their "happy meals" by including a toy.
Snow White
I love how snow white looks real and moves like a real person. I didn't however care for the quality of the voices opera singers. Maybe it was the sound technology back then. The voices lack fullness. I don't think this is true but I once read that cats dislike female opera singers.
