In class, when the subject of landscape paintings came up, we were asked why anyone would paint a landscape. The immediate, and the only real answer that popped in my head was so you could be reminded of home. The primary reason that I look at landscape paintings is so that I can try to relate them to something back home so I don't feel so far away. Being a college student with a weekend job does not allow for a lot of time to go home so sometimes, I can just start looking up different landscape paintings and they remind me of home when I can't be there. I know it's lame but oh well! =D
