I am content also to agree with you, dear friend. I must admit that my post had a tint of polemics: I grew up in a town that is one of the siege of the fine art. I am satisfied of the small ripple in the pond that my little rock has caused.

PS numbers covered in scripty ornaments tend to give a kitschy impression indeed.
PPS "wow, it seems so bright and open in here," summarizes it perfectly.
Coming back to Ea's parallel with beautiful women make up (maybe my main hobby, not the make up of course), I imagine one of our Southern beauties, with her rich hormonal flow, with un-plucked brows, It might add a kinky touch to her looks, but in this case, the absence of make up would be definitely noticeable.

See my reply below.
