'Always think your design out in your head before you begin to get it on the paper. Don’t begin by slobbering and messing about in the hope that something may come out of it. You must see it before you can draw it, whether the design be of your own invention or nature’s.’
William Morris ‘Art and the Beauty of the Earth’ (lecture 1881)
