I have a similar view to an artists work. I am especially fascinated by the artists drawings and sketches. Particularly the ones not meant for display but are the result of the artist thinking out loud (so to speak).
Also the raw drawings of young children are wonderful. That is until we start to tell them what things are really supposed to look like.
