FINE LINES & BROAD STROKES

A fine line or a broad stroke from an artist's brush creates either photo-realism or conceptual abstract. Neither genre is good or bad. The beauty is in the eye of the artist and the viewing enthusiast. Not so with language. The fine line or the broad stroke affected with words, results in either clarity, sanity, logic, and analysis or libel, vilification, smear, and defamation. The first enlightens, the other deceives. The ugliness is in the heart of the wordsmith and in the mind of the obsessive. The first communication is exceptional but infrequent; the other is tactless but persistent.
