What to do?
Not completely a composition question, but...
I have a painting underway that includes an antique Chinese blue/white vase with glads. The vase is not factory produced--it may have been turned or formed by hand-- and thus when fired, it's a bit wobbly. Not perfect, but not misshapen either. The rim is slightly out of alignment with the base elliptically, and the sides are not perfect mirror images of each other. But the design is a very symmetrical classic shape.
Do I paint it as is, and risk being taken for an artist who doesn't quite get their perspective down, or do I clean it up?
What would YOU do?
Thanks in advance--TE
