In 1786 the English drawing master Alexander Cozens published an instructional manual, A New Method for Assisting the Invention in Drawing Original Compositions of Landscape, entirely based on the development of blot drawing. In more recent times, the technique has been exploited by the Surrealists, as in the drawings of Max Ernst and, later, by Bruce Connor.
