“Neatness” is definitely subjective and a question of aesthetics. And although there is indeed a question of “technique”, I continue to claim that consistency is likely the biggest factor as to whether something is felt as being “neat” or not. By this I mean that if you continue to do what you do the same way “always”, even if it really isn’t “neat”, it will “feel neat” :o)

Beyond consistency, I do have some comments and “techniques” that let my work be consistent with my own sense of aesthetics. Please read on for some of these.
