"The art challenges the technology and the technology challenges the art. Technical artists are coming from computer graphics schools, and learning sculpture, drawing and painting, and traditional artists are learning more about technology. The more we get their cross-pollination the more we will stretch the boundaries of this medium" -John Lasseter, PIXAR Animation.

"The act of drawing empowers the artist to look at the world, to deconstruct and rebuild it. Drawing as a discipline will enable the maker to develop a visual memory, meaning that past experiences and observations can be used in informed, insightful ways that, in turn, change the nature of what is created and communicated. In truth drawing has much in common with text in it has rules and these rules can be broken. The basic rule if construction to drawing are: grammer (mark making), syntax (composition) and meaning (content, subject). In drawing we use media, process, techniques, craft, methods, mark making, compositions juxtaposition, context, gesture, atmosphere, character development and description." -Mario Minichiello

" The drawings don't start with 'a beautiful mark'. It has to be a mark of something out there in the world. It doesn't have to be an accurate drawing, but it has to stand for an observation, not something that is abstract, like an emotion." -William Kentridge
