We can’t paint life - trees, boats, people, the skies, rivers, etc.  We can only paint (and for that matter photograph) symbols of things.  Photographs, however, can be very deceptive.  They can appear to have captured the real thing.  I think a good painting should make no such pretense.

I agree with you, Wayne! And I like this painting of yours!

Many thanks, Pierre.  I was pleased with how this turn out and a little surprised no one seemed to appreciate it.
