Freud is at the top of my 'artists I love and inspire me' list. A lot of his work is impasto and, it's often a single 'dab' of paint that brings eyes alive, one sploge in the right place makes all the difference! I often struggled with painting eyes so I took a step back from trying to get it exactly right and began just trying to capture the emotion or the person (or dog!) themselves. I am now converted to dabs and sploge for eyes!
