Irises in Mark's Graden

 Click to bid
Oil on canvas  9" x 12"
I stood in Mark's driveway and painted last spring. Neighbors, children in tow, paused to ask about the image and marvel that it "looked real" Traffic slowed, which was kind of fun. Objective art is curious...just to what degree will we accept something as real? One would think that with all the access to fool proof photography people have, their definition of "real" would be more sophisticated...or at the very least something approaching that which is created with a mechanical lens.  I think if more people saw painters painting, they too would be able to achieve some degree of likeness.
