Primitivism
2 Quotes, to maybe help to understand an intent in these, a process, a search for form, Automatic drawing, charcoal first. Expression with no fear no goal.

Paul Klee, Pantheon Books, 1972
It is a great difficulty and great necessity to have to start with the smallest. I want to be as though new-born, knowing nothing, absolutely nothing; ignoring poets and fashions, to be almost primitive. Then I want to do something very modest; to work out by myself a tiny, formal motive, one that my pencil; will be able to hold without any technique. One favorable moment is enough. The little thing is easily and concisely set down. It's already done! It was a tiny but real affair, and someday, through the repetition of such small but original deeds, there will come one work upon which I can really build.
