The artist and drawing-master Alexander Cozens regarded drawing as a means of tapping the imagination. He devised a method of drawing a ‘blot’ with ink and a broad brush. This had to be done rapidly and without too much conscious thought. The ‘blot’ would then be used as the basis for an invented landscape: any contours suggestive of trees, hills and mountains would be traced and used to create a new composition.
