What a great subject to explore! I am very interested to see what pops up in this thread.
I love the image you included, too.

Michele,
That IS the painting. It is a painting by the artist Alyssa Monks.

Im afraid this thread will not take off here as I posted it on another forum as well and several of our members have disected it over there fairly well.

Hi Kim, I find this a very important & sensitive subject.
This is a beautiful painting & well titled. I love this kind of drama.
What is art if we shy away from the emotion of it all.!?
Fake, I would say. ... meaningless.
good thread.
( what other forum ? - PM me ?)

I like the topic and haven't seen it on the other forum. I agree with Tricia - what is art, to shy away from emotion? Certainly, an artist needs to generate sales to be in business, but that's not what it's all about. If it was, the world would be without "The Scream" by Munch, or much of Goya's work.
