In order to capture and communicate the immediate sense of palpable life, the cornerstone of Lewis's artistic ethos has always involved long hours of drawing and sketching from life, in front of the living, breathing subject as he observes, smells and senses it in its presence. It is while drawing that the artist makes sense of the form before him and it is the way that he imprints that form onto his consciousness. For him, the act of drawing is also a meditation or focused observation and it is something to which he constantly returns while engaged in the process of sculpting, filling books with sketches, notes and drawings.
