It's really pretty and picturesque from afar, but when you get closer we found out that the guy wrote at least an essay's worth all over the painting - most of the 'art' is actually words, like the crops in the fields are all just words - and they all either say a narrative, say something about someone, or just say cute little tidbits...like the one below talks about a river 'from which all groovy vibes flow.' Be sure to check it out next time you're in the museum
I went to the Metropolitan Art Museum a few times this semester, but I never noticed this painting until the end of December -
