I was taught the most elegant solution is the best

 and that was when I was studying linguistics.  It is also proving true for art and I am learning to simplify my paintings. By reducing detail I can create a more focused composition. Another art as life metaphor?
 
“When I am working on a problem I never think about beauty. I only think about how to solve the problem. But when I have finished, if the solution is not beautiful, I know it is wrong.”
- Buckminster Fuller (1895-1983)
