As Robert Henri says in his book The Art Spirit, this is kind of Concept-and-Carry method of study.
've got the Icon Editions edition, 1984, page 31: That's where this concept is writen. The Art of Spirit is a wonderful book and I come back to it every now and then.
What moves men of genius, or rather what inspires their work, is not new ideas, but their obsession with the idea that what has already been said is still not enough.
