But whenever I do, it\u2019s usually because of one of two things:<br \/>\n1.\u00a0\u00a0 It came out nothing like I had in mind;<br \/>\n2.\u00a0\u00a0 It was technically flawed, beyond what I could live with.<\/p>\n<p>Number one happens more often. I sometimes have a vivid image in my head of what I want to draw. So vivid that the real drawing can\u2019t live up to it. Some other times, even if the end result is different than what I had planned, it surprises me (in a good way). I don\u2019t know why.<\/p>\n<p>On another note, sometimes, things that appear quite imperfect I love the most. They started on a scrap piece of paper, I was not expecting anything out of it but yet, here they are, very imperfect but satisfying, like the two pieces below.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/20983499@N00\/7998071787\/\" title=\"imperfection de ma Datcha, sur Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8307\/7998071787_04744c450b_z.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"221\" alt=\"imperfection\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Have a good and satisfying weekend!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Sans titre de ma Datcha, sur Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/20983499@N00\/7978204217\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8038\/7978204217_621c097ebf_z.jpg\" alt=\"Sans titre\" width=\"600\" height=\"362\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Sans titre de ma Datcha, sur Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/20983499@N00\/7978205786\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8436\/7978205786_a7b85337db_z.jpg\" alt=\"Sans titre\" width=\"600\" height=\"457\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For my second post on the &#8220;one year anniversary recapitulation&#8221; theme, I was going to write about imperfection, but after a while, I realized that the adjective \u201cunsatisfied\u201d came out more often.
