Merle,
Sorry, what do you mean, there? I missed it. "Thought as much" about what?
Maybe you mean you don't care for _en plein air_ paintings, or realistic space
art. Note that when Bill paints earth landscapes, he is still doing space art
(so is every landscape painter).
I respect Picasso, and like his art. I often quote his wonderful line, and use
it when I teach Buddhist Yoga classes, and beginning Ch'an meditation:
"Art is a lie that reveals the truth."
I've stood in front of "Guernica" at MoMA for long periods, repeatedly.
Tell me something about your reaction to any of Bill Hartmann's work.
My favorite paintings today, and on many days, are by Joan Miro.
