A while a go, after years over going to art museums, discovered that I began to understand the feels and impressions and emotions one gets from a painting. Picasso's "Guernica" particularly hit home when we saw it in Madrid. http://www.mala.bc.ca/~lanes/english/hemngway/picasso/guernica.htm. The picture here in no way describes the emotional impact.
With this is mind have been looking for something with impact, that I could look at everyday. (looking at Guernica everyday would possible lead to suicide)
I acquired a painting - after much review and searching. Nothing spoke to me. This one did -

Flowers on grave stones from a trip to Mexico. Again the picture does not really do it justice. After 6 months this is still something I can enjoy every day.
Let me know the first thing that comes to mind when you see it.

I like the picture but it seems sad and old..
I like this one better... happier.

Ok O see, I don't see sad I saw love, dreams and hope in the real world.
Pointillism is really neat, I like Seurat works also a lot.
