The Artist's Soliloquy

2-B or NOT 2-B
2-B or NOT 2-B... That is the question!
Whether 'tis nobler to use 6-B for softer lines, or 2-B for firmer and more-coherent expression...
An errant swipe... and a smudge... or worse yet, a smear, renders the rendering less clear and hence far-less dear.
So, the thorny dilemma... and succinctly, the question... begs the discernment of the artist's intent. Having the motive and the means, yet not quite the fully-formed intent, results in statements and lines so-rent... that one cannot interpret their deeper meanings, nor the artist's leanings.
The artist first, and then those who share the view must judge... between the fine thin line or the quavering smudge.
The preceding nattering text constitutes the musings and mutterings of a befuddled artist/writer.
