I often thought my photos were pretty good until I started drawing them. And then I realized that, in most cases, my drawings were much more evocative than the photographs. Not only could I highlight certain areas of the photograph, and bring certain objects forward into view, but just the general patina of ink on paper made by the hand, was enough to convince me that my photography up until this point was not photography at all but just a collection of pictures waiting for a more gentle hand.
