Henry Moore : One doesn't do things for the roughness or the smoothness. You do them for what it is you're trying to express. I like the feeling sometimes of their being energy trying to force itself from inside the material outwards, as you get when you have a knuckle, a fist which you're clenching. The bones press from inside and those surfaces have to be smooth. If they were rough, they wouldn't look as though they were being pressed. So sometimes you may smooth a surface. Other times you leave it rough. It's what you want to express.
