Writing and language served as major conceptual foundations for Twombly's [[art]]; the written word, in the form of poems, myths and histories, inspired much of his work. He focused on the process of writing, both by sketching words directly onto the canvas and by creating line- and handwriting-based compositions. [http://www.theartstory.org/artist-twombly-cy.htm]
