Have you ever bought art?
Was it a painting or a drawing that you fell in love with? A notecard that you framed and hung on the wall? That piece of pottery that just had to come home with you?
It's called Term Paper, and I love it. It hangs in our living room, and from where I sit on the couch, every time I look up - there it is.
I find new colors in it regularly, and depending on my mood, I see the scene differently. Some times I want to get right up close to it and get lost in the brush strokes. Other days, I love standing across the room and seeing the scene more coherently.
I've since forgotten what I paid for it, or how I agonized over bringing it home. Now that it's a part of our home, and something I look at everyday, it just makes me happy.
And really, isn't that what art is supposed to do?
Wow, that is so cool that your camera took such a high quality shot of the painting-- its so beautiful! I am making it my background.
