Stroke by stroke

Please edit it:

When a painter is painting his work, stroke by stroke, you cannot see the work is perfect before it has been finished. And when a sculptor is carving his sculpture, for example, carving a block of stone into a statue like the Statue of Liberty, cut by cut, you can find a lot of imperfections since the sculpture is still unfinished. By analogy, science is imperfect when it is in its experimental stage. But once science is in its summit and beyond which nothing cannot be found, it is perfect.
