[QUOTE="Chesterton, post: 77653695, member: 225709"] I had a cousin who was a pretty serious artist. I was at her place right after she'd returned from a trip to Russia. She wanted to show me a picture of a church she'd painted. Naturally I was expecting to see one of the thousands of unusually beautiful, magnificent Orthodox churches in Russia. Instead, she had painted this plain little wooden church with a steeple that looks like any church you can see in small town America. I couldn't believe she was all the way over in Russia and painted a church which looks like the one down the street from her. I asked her why she chose that church and she said she was walking down the street towards evening and "the light was just perfect". The light was perfect - what does that even mean? Artists are weird, lol. [/QUOTE]
