BLUE TEA POT oil/canvas 9x12 $950


In wit, as nature, what affects our hearts,
Is not th' exactness of peculiar parts.
"Tis not a lip or eye we beauty call,
But the joint force, and full result of all...

...Whoever thinks a faultless piece to see,
Thinks what ne'er was, nor is, nor e'er shall be.

Alexander Pope - Essays on Criticism
