I think that in turning, as well as other art forms, knowing when to stop
is as
important as knowing how to make or do the work..


As in musical performance, the phenomenon that the 'pursuit of perfection'
of the performer often rips out the 'heart and soul' of a piece.

And therein lies the reason for the artificial "beauty mark" applied to the
faces of the great beauties of yore ... a manifestation/tribute to the
beauty inherent in human imperfection ... a concept much too subtle to be
appreciated by the idiocracy of the MTV generation.

Nice to know that others can still appreciate that less is often better ...
and that the space between the notes is often more important than the notes
themselves.
