I don't think the same pleasure one gets from one's completed work can not
be felt the same in anyone else, and should not expected to be.

So even if the artist feels that her finished work is "inevitable and
resolved", another observer, absent an artist's need for self congratulation,
might feel quite differently.

I have a great need to get that feeling from a painting or statue -- the delight being that it can be delivered in so many ways, each of which feels like an unexpected, happy surprise regardless of how familiar all the
elements of style  may be.


Though usually, I'm disappointed and frustrated.
