Paintings and Piercings

[quoth_lisa]

I have long since admired the artists who paint the portraits decorating the castle walls, but have only recently come to the conclusion that the shallow and superficial subjects of the portraits were probably not so in their life. I doubt that even history's finest painters and sculptors can capture the depth of humanity in its completeness

I believe, judging from this post, that they portrayed human depth rather accurately.

Believe what you will.

That is usually how things work.

It's funny how often things do not work as they 'usually' do.

Ooooh! Esetelle's Beauty and Body Works most certainly! It sounds much more professional, as tempting as pizza might be!

I thought so. It also sounds as if you are less likely to catch anything nasty at Estelle's. I was just checking.

I beg to differ. I've found that some of those paintings have, in fact, managed to capture at least a sembilance of the depth of real people as subjects. I've always had the opinion that if modern day painters showed a little atavism, then we could all benefit from their works of art.

If you had read my entry carefully, you would note that I said 'the depth of humanity in its completeness'. A semblance of depth is not completeness of depth.

can I get a piercing pizza? It may be kinda holey, but still mmm tasty, so long as there is cheese on it.

will there be cheese?

At Pete's? Yes, I would imagine there is an abundance of cheese at Pete's.
