When you draw, form is the important thing. But in painting the first thing is to look for the general impression of color….. Always paint a direct sketch from nature every day”.

Jean-Léon Gérôme, via James Gurney’s book : ‘Color and light’.

To draw does not simply mean to reproduce contours; the drawing does not simply consist in the idea; the drawing is even the expression, the interior form, the plan, the model. Look what remains after that! The drawing is three-fourths and a half of what constitutes painting. If I had to put a sign over the door of my atelier, I would write: School of Drawing…and I’m certain that I would create painters.

(‘Notes et pensées’ in « Ingres, sa vie, ses travaux, sa doctrine » by H. Delaborde, p.123, H. Plon, 1870)

A photo of David Jon Kassan

David Jon Kassan

Hello,
I discovered D. Kassan by looking for a video on the drawing. His Video fascinated me : we could see each of his movements in spite of  a little faster video.
I am an amateur of academic and realistic drawing. I found my happiness with Mr Kassan. In fact, the other draftsmen and painters are certainly so competent as him. But he understood the interest to show his work and especially his working way. It is what I appreciate about Mr Kassan, after his work naturally!
