As a noun or a verb, seeing through, is the driving concern. In conjuring through process or looking beyond as a model for insight, I agree with Kurt below that painting allows artists to hold on to their minds.

I resonate with Joseba Eskubi's response to the act of making and viewing a painting. A "unique, unrepeatable act" that may be interpreted differently by many minds in many ways throughout time. Much of the power and poetry of painting can be found in its multivalent nature. Thanks for posting.

I appreciate your considerable reply. The next question to post will be about the artist’s relationship to color, if you are interested to contribute

Thank you very much. Color concerns are an important part of painting today. I'd be interested in contributing. Let me know how best to do that.

The function of painting is to prevent artists from losing their minds.
