From the writings of Leonardo Da Vinci:
O thou that sleepest, what is sleep? Sleep is an image of 
death. Oh why not let your work be such that after death you become an image of immortality?
We know well that errors are better recognized in the works of others than in our own; and often by reproving little faults in others, we may ignore great ones in ourselves.
Sitting too close at work may greatly deceive you.
It is well that you should often leave off work and take a little relaxation, because when you come back to it you are a better judge.
It is good to retire a distance because the work looks smaller and your eye takes in more of it at a glance and sees more easily the lack of harmony and proportion in the limbs and colours of the objects.

encuentro que es un gran consejo el que se da en esta web, supongo que el artista sabe lo que hable, sé que él sabía lo que decía.. ahora leonardo está tan de moda, que su trabajo se va atrofiando, porque quienes lo ven no buscan más que aventuras y no encontrar belleza y armonía.
