inferior

Each act of creation shall leave you humble,
for it is never as great as your dream and always
inferior to that most marvelous dream of God
which is Nature.

Gabriela Mistral, Decalogue of the Artist

  2. AND. I just realized that when I was thinking about you today, I was thinking of the conversation we had regarding this. Because I was looking at the painting and remembered when you said that it was amazing how we could paint something and not even come close to a perfect image, when we can look outside and see all that God has created. love that.
