Clark said "It conveys what I feel About plants. It's no accomplishment at all to paint a plant that looksf like a plant. To me in plant is gigantic. A living thing. even more meaningful than II human, being" What wniild he have thought of If two year; ago? "I think I wniild hate liked the colors and would have recognized it was of plants. But that's all. I used to like the Group of Seven kind of things and the Impres- sionists. But I don't know what Picasso was alhabnut." He said if the painting communi- cated something to one other per- lin it was worth painting. But an. lrtist should not be concerned about his audience.
