A good example of Goethe’s “looking”

As you know, Fex & Coo (fexandcoo.website) began with my mulling on Goethe's admonition
to look at what one sees, and to find the story there. Looking resulted in a flow of story. This
post illustrates another example conveyed in a TED talk by Wendy MacNaughton where one
draws what one sees but without seeing what one is drawing. In this case, one may be seeing
a face, but the drawing becomes another way of "looking" at what one sees. This is a very useful
example, and I suggest you try it.
