Characteristic of many of Povey's designs, the design for the painting EATER shows how an idea evolved from a very different source and finally concluded in precise lines, ready for transfer to the brown-washed canvas. He believes that the scale of the figures enormously affects their expression and impact, and his calculations are visible.
