A Hint, of wabi sabi
I was planning to finish it. To go in and paint the vase shape all the way around.
But I paused. And considered the philosophy of wabi sabi that I love.
Wabi Sabi is the idea of finding and seeing the beauty in things impermanent, imperfect and unfinished.
And so, I chose, to leave it unfinished.
