either you get it or you don't, no problem to me if it is the latter; the very fact that Gare thinks it's a good idea might carry some weight [pun intentional] I would have thought, but no matter
@handrawn, I too was describing simplistic and I do understand what you would see as a useful approach for how you draw.
Others are like @ernie-f and I've seen near photoreal art using fading ellipses with no lines anywhere.

It has to boil down to pick a tool that works for you and use that.
