The Forests Have Ears and The Fields Have Eyes.


After doing so much research on Hieronymus Bosch for my essay, I found a drawing of his which I really like, maybe even more than his super-detailed paintings. 'The Forests Have Ears and The Fields Have Eyes' is a pen and ink drawing, perhaps from a notebook of some sort.

A lot of the time, sketchbooks, notebooks, diaries and journals interest me more than the finished pieces. I like to see how the ideas are accumulated, stretched and experimented with. How a tiny and seemingly insignificant doodle can become a huge exhibition. These crucial stages in planning work fascinate and inspire me.
