My favorite piece was a portrait of a young man with glasses in the American art section. It was painted by the young man’s father and showed a lot of love and care in the detail he captured. The young man had one pair of glasses on and was holding a second pair. I just wondered, why two?

Debi,

It looks like you three really examined the art, I’m wondering what caught your eye the most? Did you find a little known jewel.

Was there a stand out piece that captured you,Debi??
Looking forward to your newest endeavor large figure works? I suggest the number Seven. I do not know why when someone says figure works I always have to say that joke? But I do, Sorry!!

As to the white canvas I was always told its a painting of a polar bear in a white-out storm.

Take Care Debi.

Of course,Debi a white canvas is art ! A well done painting compels the viewer to get close, observe, ask questions, spur debate, promt emotion, tell a story or all of the above.
My favorite story that a white canvas tells is that of a cow eating grass. Where’s the grass one may ask. Well, the cow ate it. Where’s the cow? You don’t think she would sick around when the grass was gone, do you ?
I rest my case.
