Artists View

This thought in particular makes me wonder how many artists have painted paintings with a certain color blindness, and how these paintings are viewed by a world that will never understand fully the intent of the painter....

This says a lot about peoples tastes in general though. Does she like that painting because its blue? Or does she like it because it reminds her of her grandmother's table cloth? Much of this conversation about reality makes me think about the way other people perceive the world and how maybe I wont ever "get it." I wont ever fully see what you see. You wont ever fully see what I see.

But does it matter? Perhaps not. Does it bother me? Perhaps yes.

Nobody ever said that I had to "get it" though.
