The very reason why one's first instincts and sketches are more
representative
of your true inner self, and should be respected by the artist.

I also found the Robbins special interesting in numerous ways. In

a fumbler like me was encouraged to see how long it took Robbins to
get
something "right". A friend who was watching it with me said it
brought to mind
Michelangelo working on the Sistine Chapel ceiling. He evidently
kept changing
it, and kept changing it, exasperating everyone around him, and
damaging
himself in the process, until one morning he came in and, to his
horror, found the
scaffolding was gone. The Pope had ordered it taken down.
We have on our walls several paintings by a minor artist named Savo
Radulovic. To his friends, Savo was famous as someone who needed an
observer of good
sensibility who could, at the right time, just pull the painting
away him. The
friends had too often seen Savo bring a painting to a peak -- and
fail to
stop there.
