Consistency isn't glamorous or sexy but it does work. Vincent proves this again and again. He says in a letter to Theo "I cannot stop drawing because I have a draughtman's fist"..."I pushed on and I gradually grew stronger in the battle." Because he kept at it, day in and day out, year in and year out, his drawings are full of vigor and a surety of hand that does not come from a day or two of sketching.
And they are beautiful.
