In perspective drawing, the viewer's eye-level is the horizon.
Piet Mondrian, p. 226
Painting is as much about learning how to see as it is about eating pencils (body proportions for human figure drawing).

“In science, new knowledge builds on and refines the old. In art, according to common caricature, the new eclipses the old and rewrites all the rules”
