Leonardo Da Vinci on practice and theory
Advice from Leonardo Da Vinci, elucidating one of the reasons I keep this blog as a learning tool to support my professional practice:
OF THE MISTAKES MADE BY THOSE WHO PRACTISE WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE.
Those who are in love with practice without knowledge are like the sailor who gets into a ship without rudder or compass and who never can be certain whether he is going. Practice must always be founded on sound theory, and to this Perspective is the guide and the gateway; and without this nothing can be done well in the matter of drawing.”
