Can you define perfection? A famous saying is, "Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder" and my take on this is :) - "Perfection lies in the eyes of the beholder" :)
Now coming to the question - what is perfection? The dictionary says perfection is 'being faultless', 'ideal', 'state of completeness' AND yes agreed, perfection is state of completeness.
Now who defines what is completeness - completeness can have both qualitative and quantitative side to it.
So lets discuss perfection of the above painting to bring the idea home
Quantitative perfection
- Colour intensity
- Shades used
- %coverage of the overall area ;)
- Contour perfection
Qualitative perfection
- Does it appeal to senses
- Does looking at this makes you feel happy
- Do you want to change anything in the above
Really!!! i mean really!!!
Do you look at things and start judging the qualitative and quantitative aspects? Do you really do this in real life?
i bet NO! In real life, we look at things and enjoy the beauty. We marvel at what nature has given us - which is a mix of both good and bad. The combination of this makes a perfect nature - and this is what is perfection - it is looking at the beauty and appreciating it. Finding faults takes it to the new zone altogether AND we dont do this, iff, we have to enjoy what is there infront of us.
So guys, just live the moment and enjoy what is infront of you - give your best and the best will come bouncing back :)
Now you need to relook at the above painting - AND see - the painting does look perfect :)
CIAO!!!
